I'm no expert but I'm guessing the spike during cold running has everything to do with the roofing tar(20-50) in the crankcase.

It looks a lot like the color that I painted my '61 Ghia.
Now don't scream at me. It was a General Motors/Cadillac color--
1980ish "Yellow Beige"

Here's a '67 vert that was refinished in Yukon Yellow.
