Some foam can be expected. I would make sure the vent is good and clean. Refill with new quality gear lube to the proper level. Some gear oils and additives can foam to a degree. I will bet you had driven the car and the oil was good and hot when you pulled the cover.
After 24 hours of cover off that stuff is still in the gear. Oil looks like its contaminated with something. Cant be water. Car has never seen rain or wet road since restoration. Never made noise. Strange.
Clean what you can, check vent to see it's not clogged. Get the correct lube and a couple bottles of ford limited slip lube. Add one bottle of the ford and fill rear to proper level. Drive it some 50/100 miles. Drain into a clean tub and see what it looks like. If it looks good you might want put it back in. That soup in the pan somebody more knowledge than I could tell you if it's friction material.
