[QUOTE="JCart, post: 1508489, member: 1238"] Review the front engine casting where the front of the cooler bolts to. If you overtighten the front bolts it can cause the engine cover casting to crack (don’t ask how I know....), causing (mine leaked external antifreeze). I’d check for hairline cracks in this area. I’d also look closely at the front cooler to block gasket. In respect to the cooler itself, correct me if I’m mistaken guys, but the oil pressure in theory is higher pressure then the antifreeze so oil should contaminate antifreeze system first no? Although after shut down perhaps antifreeze is contaminating oil system as it may stay pressured longer? Also just throwing it out there, if the fan bearing is bad it can cause the impeller to chew a hole in the front aluminum engine cover next the block, wondering if antifreeze can migrate into top of oil pan if this happens? j [/QUOTE]
