Potential Oil in Coolant.
I have a '88 N/A 7 I was checking the air filter yesterday and noticed that my coolant was looking a bit dark. So popped to lid on the reservoir and indeed it looks as if it is oil. Assuming that i am correct with it being oil that would mean that i have to tear the engine apart and replace one(+) seals. Firstly is there another way to check if it is a leaky seal, or whatever you guys think it could be. Secondly, if i am right about the tear down, what else should i replace while I'm in there?
Thanks much in advance.

really? I read somewhere that it could mean a blown coolant seal or something like that. Sadly i can't remember where i saw that. On the brighter side, after a good bit of doggin' her out, still no other nastiness in there.
