blown coolant seals or oil o-rings. Either way, rebuild :*(

very difficult to understand you. check your wording. sounds like you may have internal troubles with a coolant seal...check for air bubbles in the coolant in the radiator with the engine running and the radiator cap off (88 and up). check the coolant level and monitor it and see if it is in fact consuming coolant.
