Yep..... That be moisture...... Clean them up, and rerun engine for about an hour. If still happening, then it is probably a head gasket.

A head gasket? Not on an I-6 engine, that's a blind-bore engine (no removable cylinder head). I would look at the exhaust cover and gaskets as the source of the water.

If after running the motor it still has water(white milky) on a few plugs you may have a bad inner exhaust gasket. This gasket goes around your exh ports for the water cooled ports.
