That means that the sealing was allowing liquid getting inside the attachment gears, and now it is leaking lubricant from the ice cream attachment. I don't think that the unit can be repaired, the ice cream attachment is all in one block, and I have not seen any part being distributed.
This small appliances have 12 months factory warranty, call Kitchenaid after registering the appliance, you may still be able to validate the warranty. If warranty is gone, complain that the problem was due to factory defect and try to get a part exchange with reduced price on new replacement, or , since warranty expire recently, see if you can buy an extended service plan.

Of course it isn't safe to eat!!
It is likely a mixture of oil, broken seal dust and a little metal/rust creamed with a drop of condensation.
50 years as as a chef and I wouldn't serve that or eat it. Fix it or thrown the machine away! These machines are normally 20 years old and get used 3 times every 2 years.
If the left side of your Taylor 754-27 ice cream machine is freezing in the tub but not in the barrel, there could be a few potential issues to consider. Here are some possible causes and troubleshooting steps:
1. Insufficient refrigerant flow: Check if the refrigerant flow is restricted or inadequate, which can prevent proper freezing in the barrel. Ensure that the refrigerant lines and valves are clear and not blocked or clogged. You may need to clean or replace any filters or strainers in the refrigerant system.
2. Temperature control malfunction: Verify that the temperature control settings are correct for the barrel freezing process. The control thermostat may be faulty and need replacement. Check the temperature sensor and wiring connections to ensure they are in good condition.
3. Insulation problems: Examine the insulation surrounding the barrel to ensure it is intact and properly insulating. Insufficient insulation can lead to the barrel not freezing as expected. If the insulation is damaged, replace it with appropriate insulation materials.
4. Barrel motor or drive system issues: If the barrel is not rotating properly, it may result in inadequate freezing. Check the motor and drive components responsible for rotating the barrel. Look for any signs of wear or damage and ensure they are functioning correctly. Lubricate the drive system if necessary.
5. Refrigeration system malfunction: A problem with the compressor, condenser, or evaporator can impact the freezing process. Inspect these components for any signs of malfunction, such as unusual noises, leaks, or inadequate cooling. If any issues are found, it is advisable to contact a professional refrigeration technician for repair or servicing.
6. Improper assembly or installation: Double-check the gaskets, seals, and o-rings that were replaced during maintenance. Ensure they are properly installed and creating a tight seal. Any gaps or leaks in these components can affect freezing performance.
If you have attempted these troubleshooting steps and the issue persists, it is recommended to contact a professional technician who specializes in Taylor ice cream machines. They will have the expertise to diagnose and repair the specific problem with your equipment.

If your ice cream maker freezes and stops turning after only 20 minutes, there may be a few reasons for this. Here are some things to check:
Freezing temperature: Make sure that the temperature in your freezer is set to the correct temperature (around 0°F or -18°C). If the freezer is too warm, the ice cream maker may not freeze the mixture properly.
Mixture consistency: Make sure that the mixture you are using is not too thick. If the mixture is too thick, the ice cream maker may struggle to turn the mixture and freeze it properly.
Overfilling: Make sure that you are not overfilling the ice cream maker. Overfilling can cause the mixture to overflow and prevent the machine from freezing the mixture properly.
Motor issue: If none of the above solutions work, there may be an issue with the motor of the ice cream maker. In this case, you may need to contact the manufacturer or a professional repair service to diagnose and fix the problem.
As for turning on the furnace and power in your Hitchhiker II trailer, you may need to refer to the owner's manual or contact the manufacturer for specific instructions, as the process may vary depending on the model and year of your trailer.
Standby Mode deactivates the beater and keep the ice cream cold. When you come off Standby, the ice cream warms a little and the beater starts. You can be in standby Mode as long as you like, It keep the ice cream mix in peak condition. There will be a short delay in serving the next customer.
Standby (US and Canada Only) During long no-sale periods it becomes necessary to warm product in the freezing cylinder to approximately 35°F to 40°F (1.7°C to 4.4°C) to prevent overbeating and product breakdown. When the STANDBY button is pressed, the light comes on, indicating the cylinder temperature retention system (CTR) has been activated. In the Standby mode, the Wash, Pump, and Auto functions are automatically canceled. The Mix Ref function is automatically locked in to maintain the mix in the cabinet. To resume normal operation, press the AUTO button. When the machine cycles off, product in the freezing cylinder will be at serving viscosity.
