Great Intro, welcome to LZ.
Pleas for help/advice and expertise belong in the relevant sub-forum for the vehicle concerned.
A few P's & Q's never go amiss either ;)
 
If it’s the K series you tend to get a mix on the dip stick this quite common on My MGF (same lump) but does not mean the sump oil is contaminated-unless your losing coolant? Clean the dip stick several times then try btw way just a thought did you jet wash your engine recently as the K series engine doesn’t go well with water in the electrics ...

Err unless it’s a td4 which I suspect it’s not both have the same Engine and I’ve owned vehicles asw as my D2 TD5 and I’ve actually rebuilt a few K series Engines so I do know what I’m talking about ..
 
When the head gasket went on my 300tdi it struggled to turn over, I then found out it was hydraulicing due to a cylinder full of water.
