I hope I am wrong in that this might apply to your engine....but here's my story. I once had a 428 develop a crack in the block, and antifreeze got into the engine oil. Any head or intake gasket problem will do the same thing. When I dismantled the engine, I found a substantial amount of antifreeze in the space between the back end of the camshaft and the press in cam plug. If your vehicle has this problem, and the water/antifreeze rusted a hole in this plug, you do indeed "have a mess" on your hands. First thing I would do, is to check your engine oil for rad fluid.....drain it if you have to.
This thread, so far...
