Since the sludge is not on all the runners, and since it is not completly into the intake, I'll lean towards a bad seal. (if the whole intake was covered, I'll go with the leaky hose idea)
You can replace the seals with the head on, however, I would not advise it. You'll need to remove the valve springs and keepers to get at the seal, and that poses the possibility of dropping the valve into the cylinder. You can use compressed air to hold the valve in place, but if you don't know how to do it, or how to remove the springs, you gotta pull the head and take it somewhere.
Most speed shops can clean up the head and replace the seals for $100 or so. (I had mine all done with new seats, seals, and a 5 angle for $125)

What is the font called that you used to write on your picture? It sure looks like the Porsche font. Where can I get it.
P.S - Perhaps the Circus could give you a job playing piano with your feet if your carrer does not work out
