    Just got my Inframe done in my 98 freightliner Detroit 60 series. There's water moisture on my oil cap.

    Wipe it off, drive it atleast 200-500mi (whatever is enough to burn off moisture content) and recheck.

    Theres condensation and there's coolant. Not the same thing. If you are for not for sure, before you get too far down the road, take the valve covers off and look at the lifters. If there IS a problem, it will look like slimy mud coating the under side of the valve covers.
