It sounds like the head gasket is cracked. That would allow oil to get into the water.

I have had this happen only is was the water getting into my oil. If it was like mine, it still had the orginal antifreeze in it and it ate through the head gasket and even into the head a bit. There was a water gallery about an 3/4 or an inch away from the piston. I used jb weld to fill the little groove in the head and put a new gasket on and it has worked every since and fresh antifreeze. I use mine every summer for haying.
