My M molly that I use to run my bearcat grinder has developed a gray color to her engine oil. I am sure that it is some water in the oil, but where is the most likely spot it is coming from? And how might be the best way to find out and fix it? Thanks for the ideas.

If you have antifreeze in coolant,let tractor sit a day or two without running.Next loosen the oil pan drain plug just enough that fluid drips out.If clear water drops first then probaly condensation, or water entered through exhaust.If you see antifreeze in drops its probaly leaking head gasket or cracked block or head.

Theres a few way it can get there. #1 from the exhaust pipe not being covered in the rain/leaking at the manifold area.
#2 condensation from these cool nights
#3 bad head gasket, or a crack some where.
