Good morning.
When you have oil in the water it could be from a couple of things. if you have an oil cooler on the engine, it would do it. beyond that, it could be a cracked block.

Yep, check the oil cooler if you have one on the motor.
Also, if you have a crack in the block which is common, it will do this as well.
