Need more info on what you mean by cloudy ? If it's like a chocolate milkshake you may have intermix .

Agreed. Have you had any overheating issues? Low coolant? A cracked head slowly leaks coolant into the oil causing an intermix. Dump the oil and send a sample for analysis. Don’t drive the car until you find out what is going on.

Have you sent your oil out to get it tested?

Share photos here if you can. Blackstone Oil Analysis can do a better job of giving you answers than any of us keyboard warriors but expect a two week turnaround time.
