New Outboard and need help

[SNOOK MASTER]

Me and my buddy submerged his new F4 Outboard in freshwater. Quickly got it out and headed home paddling. Drained fuel at home and she cranked up. Ran good in idle at home. Noticed that the color of the crancase oil is a light cream color. Is this the way the oil turns on just 1.5 hours of total use on this four stroke 4 hp new motor? Need help quick. Thank you

Well, I suppose there isn't any oil to change after drowning a 2 stroke...can't think of anything else.
