Fuel in Coolant?

Here are some pictures of my degas bottle. I recently changed the o-rings on the oil cooler and I am assuming that whatever is floating is just the old oil that was left in the block and radiator after the change but would like to hear some other opinions on what else it could be.

I hope it is residual. If fuel, you will probably be looking at injector cups. Also, have you considered installing a coolant filter? I need to finish mine and get it installed. Couldn't get the plug out of my water pump for mine.

Can try this, if that plug decides not to leave home
