Yesterday it rained, so I took advantage of the primo riding conditions and went for a ride, there were lots of puddles, thinking nothing of it since I've ran in the rain before without issue. today I unloaded my bike, noticing it was a bit hard to start, rolled it into the shop, discovered milky oil, popped the radiator cap, coolant level is fine, flushed it, put a new oil filter in it and filled it. now my concern is, would there be anyway the water could have worked its way into the engine? (the engine side, not the tranny, it was fine) breather tube of some sort? or should I be looking for an actual engine problem?

Hmm, only time I've ever seen milky oil is when I overfilled it and it was coming out of the overflow.
You have a coolant leak?

It does not.
Probably a water pump seal
yea i've had a waterpump leak up until this winter. It would never make a noticeable difference in the fluid level but it would make the oil terrible. If it did make a noticeable difference your motor would probably be gone by now
its definitely reeds, or maybe the kunuter valve. Probably wanna replace that old worn out powerband of your while your in there too. That way your vtec can be poppin' yo!
I was thinking of running moon shine
