Depends on the year. Those with the oil cooler mounted under the radiator often have leaks in the connectors where the oil lines attach to the cooler. It's not as common on 2nd gen cars but it does happen. And yeah, it's pretty much just age and stress. You can take it to a radiator shop and they can fix it, or you can just solder it yourself if you are feeling fancy.
