Please help

So I looked under my car today and saw this mixture of oil and yellow "stuff". I already knew my car has a leaking oil pan which I'm getting fixed at some point. Is this yellow stuff in the oil indicative of a more major mechanical issue with the engine? Any input is greatly appreciated.

My best guess is coolant mixed in the oil.
