HI there,
All engines are reliant on gaskets, seals to stop fluids leaking, with the coolant you can get a cooling system pressure test done to help locate external leaks, as for the oil wash down the engine and check for fresh oil leaks around the rocker cove gasket front &real crank shaft seals drain plug, oil pressure sender and oil filter as these are the normal placed that leaks develop, start here.
