Oh thats bad!! Failed oil cooler. You are going to have a big mess to clean with this one. I would recommend changing the egg cooler again with the oil cooler. As the new egr cooler IMHO is compromised now. Going to need to replace all rubber hoses in the coolant system, as well as heater core, and radiator. Lots and lots of flushing with simple green too. Here are the pics.
He sent more to, but there irrelevant. You have a blown oil cooler. Pull the oil filter and make sure the stand pipe isn't melted!!

Won't know about blown HG until the oil cooler is fixed. Pull the oil filter, it's the big cannister on top of motor with black cap. Look at the stand pipe. That's the part that sticks up through the middle of the oil filter housing that the oil filter goes over. Look to see if it's melted. If it is the motor is toast.
