DC CASE with a little oil in the antifreeze

I had to drain the antifreeze out to fix a hole in the radiator ( I fixed this with JB Weld...I heard that they could be fixed with epoxy) I noticed a little oil film on top of the antifreeze. Is this significant?

More than likely the oil residue you are seeing is from greasing the water punp. The seal is a grease pressure seal and grease often passes by and mixes with the coolant. Not a problem at all and actually helps preserve the inside of the radiator... Gene

How long has the anti-freeze been in there? It doesn't take much oil to create an oil film. Over the years people likely added coolant using an oil-dirty funnel, although a funnel is seldom used on a DC as the radiator mouth is so large.

I'd keep an eye on it, but I doubt you've got a problem.
