Hey Pinto Kid. Welcome to the site. I personally have not come accross this before. Is it possible that it could be the sensory pits that oscars have on their heads?
Also, can you get a pic and post that here so we can have a look. It's hard to say without seeing it! I'm sure the others will be able to tell you more!

If the mould looks like cotton wool them its probably a fungus. There are many treatments for fungus available. Make sure your ammonia and nitrite are zero and your nitrate is below 40 ideally below 20. A pic would be a help
