Hi, Ram 3/4 yon with a360 and automatic; it has oil in the coolant. Does not miss and no steam or antifreeze smell in the exhaust. 270,000 miles so far. Any ideas? I thought head gasket, but no miss and no exhaust steam.

Still could be head gasket leaking. Doesn’t have to leak into the cylinder. It’s been a while since I had seen the underside of the heads on a magnum block so I don’t remember where the oil galley is compared to the coolant

Makes sense; oil gallery is under higher pressure so oil would tend to go to cooling system.
