yes that is the other kind of leak. i got the diagnosis for that also if you want it. but i am pretty sure he said it was diesel.
i also forgot to mention. i hear a lot about a place that sells tools called "OTC" over at the tds. it sounds like a specialty tool place. they may have it. i dont know who or where they are but i am sure they have a web site.

thats the common place for oil to get into the water is the oil cooler since its a heat exchanger, either the internals pinhole or the orings fail. i had it happen on my 94.5 and it was just the orings. it was like $50 for the kit to rebuild it.
the oil was showing up in the degauze bottle making a grey goo on the top of the water.
is he sure its diesel?? old oil sure does have that sweet diesel smell to it.

I drained and flushed the cooling system. Refilled it with only water. Drove about ten miles until the engine was warm. Got diesel in the coolant.
