This may be two fold it may have blown a head gasket and jumped time. If compression is equal all across like 90 psi or less then it's probably a chain then get it tested for a head gasket as well.

It could either leak oil to the coolant, into the cylinder or outside the engine. At base of cylinder head and block mating surface. It should be checked however first.
