Normal : After intercourse there will be discharge as the vaginal secretions mix with the ejaculated fluid deposited in the vagina. Some will drain out and some will be absorbed. Since you asked about precum vs semen I am wondering if there is more to your question? Are you unsure if ejaculation occurred inside you? If so remember there is 4-5 million sperm in precum. Pullout method is not safe.

No particular odor.: There is often seepage after a male has ejaculated into the vagina. It is a likely a mix of your secretions & his semen & pre-ejaculate. Semen is light colored. Pre-ejaculate may be clear.Pre-ejaculate may contain large amounts of viable sperm (less common), smaller amounts of sperm that are dead or alive or no sperm. Thus, there is potential for pregnancy with pre-ejaculate.
