RX-8 8-XЯ

I just went out to check my oil and to my suprise when I pulled the dipstick it was covered in this white "goop" . There was some oil on it but this goop seemed to be displacing it. I don't know what it is, it's been about 2000 miles since the last oil change and about 700 miles since I last checked the oil. I have used no additives in my fuel or oil, and have added no oil since Mazda did the change about 2 months ago. Anyone have any ideas about what this might be... and how long it will take them to fix?
