If you have an automatic trans the trans fluid is cooled by passing it through a tank inside the radiator. If this tank cracks trans fluid can mix with the coolant. The coolant can also get into the transmission. Check the trans fluid for that milky look. If you catch it soon enough you can flush the trans and maybe save it.
 
Is the exhaust white and sweet smelling? If so it may be the HG.

If not, the slack from a worn Timing Chain may have worn a hole thru the TC cover, which allows coolant and oil to mix.

Either way, it would be best not to drive it, crank bearings don't like coolant.
