How'd the lizard get in there?
What a mess.
That would be a good candidate for the kerosene in the sump overnight trick. That pick up is likely clogged shut.

Maybe it's a baby dinosaur fossil from when that crude was first pumped into that engine?

It had oil stalactites !!
That 3.9L V6 engine (I have one) is a known sludger because of intake manifold gasket seal issues. I ran only QSUD synthetic and just used the manufacturer's OCI, and when I had my heads done at 115K miles (non-lube issue) I took a look, my galley was clean as can be.
He said it's been running 10w-30 lately, I bet it's conventional, nothing wrong with that but it's unlikely to get a leg up on the sludging already there.

Jet wash and acetone, have it shining in no time
Its almost enough to make ya wanna quit smoking.
meh nothing a little MMO couldn't handle........
I laughed when he started to use ATF+4 as an oil additive. He did the right thing by unloading it to someone who would pull and rebuild the engine.

Think about all the ones that look like that that nobody even knows about just driving around still. Its amazing what some engine designs can still operate through.
