Running the motor should drive off the water suspended in the crank case. If the cloudy oil doesn't disappear then look deeper. #12 advice to keep retorquing the head until the head bolts stay tight is right on.
Do you keep the car in a garage, or outside? The motor needs to be run a while each time you use the car. Show and tell, or brief starts won't do the motor much good.
