If it's not antifreeze I'm guessing it's natural condensation after your engine cools in a humid Florida environment.

Never seen it before but I don't often remove intake plenums. I also don't live in Florida. It doesn't appear to being hurting anything. Based on what I know about condensation I would think it's not unbelievable that its natural . As the late George Carlin said, "Don't sweat the petty stuff and don't pet the sweaty stuff".

coolant passes through the EGR spacer if you still have it hooked up? There's gonna be a small hose on the top front and back, that's were it could be coming from..

I considered that but he stated that it wasn't antifreeze. Plus I can't remember anyone who DD one that has kept that hooked up.

I'm sticking with humid Florida + hot engine cooling down = condensation. Also sir, if that's your GF on the hood of your car in the pic.....You are hooked up.
