Default Calcium all over throttle body

I think I got a leak... white powder all over throttle body and aluminum parts. Ugh. The nipple on my fast idle air control broke off.. jb welding a new one on. If that doesn't work, ordering one for a 4 cylinder just for the nipple cap since the 4 cylinder is 20.00 compared to the 6 cylinder at 162.00

Just be aware that some degreasers can do that too on aluminum surfaces.

Jb weld didn't hold.. 4 banger on its way. If that doesn't fit, I may just delete the fitv all together
