Subject:oil in water

I am sorry I missed labeled this message the first time I sent it it
should have read oil in water

Hi ,
I am new to the list. I have a 1985 Westfalia. I was driving it and
glanced down to notice the temp gauge reading all the way hot, i pulled
in to home and parked it. When it cooled i checked the coolant and I had
oil in the coolant which turned to grease because of the heat. The car
is a 1.9 so it doesn't have an oil cooler on it. I have seen water in
oil before but not the oil in water since I assumed the pressure in the
cooling system is higher that the oil. Any ideas what it could be? Is it
it head related ,block or what? Any help would be appreciated

Thanks
Joe
