it does seem like a corrosion.
you can keep using it, but check other parts in your loop. this is usually happens when mixing metals (copper with aluminum) or some corrosive coolants.
Check the CPU block, fittings and radiator materials. If something is made of anything but copper/brass and is not nickel plated, replace this component.
Best coolant ever is distilled water with couple drops of biocide. Water would be better replaced every 6-12months.
this is an example of good biocide: https://mayhems.co.uk/algaecides/biocide-extreme-10ml/
