80 coolant into oil...sources?

Just found the radiator low in my 80 and the oil level high. Cracked the drain plug and got a couple tablespoons of antifreeze before the oil. The oil level seemed higher then that but who knows...

Tractor has been sitting for months while I worked on transmission issues. It ran and parked there. Had a full radiator of antifreeze, I can't remember what it checked to but I can't see it freezing and busting. The level was so low that a gallon didn't even bring it above the core, so it lost a LOT. Nothing obvious on the floor.

What places should I look for the leak besides the head gasket or possible cracks? I can't remember if the injector tubes could leak or any other small place.

This is the project that never ends...it goes on and on again...

The places you mentioned are what I was thinking.
On the subject of a never ending project I always ended up tearing them completely 100% apart and starting over ! Amazing what you find sometimes. Sort of why I quit doing them. If I could not do them 100% all the way through I wasn't going to do them at all.
