I have oil in the radiator it appears to be engine oil but no coolant in oil. What could be the most likely problems? Thanks for any info you can give me

Check the radiator for tranny lines attached, it may be tranny fluid. If not, get a block test kit at the parts store, they cost about 50.00 bucks, and it will tell if HC's are in the coolant, meaning it's oil due to a cracked head, block, or blown head gasket.
