Default I have a maintenance issue? Any help?

So today on my lunch break a colleague told me I was leaking something and had a little puddle under the right front engine area. As I should, I got down and checked it out, sure enough, I was leaking some coolant.

I figured it was just the coolant reservoir with the cap off or something. I checked, it was empty...

There is always a quarter of the tank in there.

So I went to the radiator wondering whether it would be empty or not..

Once I opened my face did this in a split second..

There was a creamy looking substance in the coolant

My question is: Is there any other way for oil to get into the coolant on the 2J, other than a bad headgasket?

Bro, if you literally put maintenance in the thread title please put thread in the maintenance forum so we don't have to move it.

Your answer: No.
