What would cause oil in the radiator reservoir in my 1996 Pontiac sunfire with a 2.4? There is NO anti freeze in the oil. Which is a relief!

Could it be a intake manifold or possible auto transmission oil leaking in? Cant seem to find the leak.:confused:

I don't understand how either one of these could leak into it, but I am reading further on it. Any help would be appreciated!
 
Is your transmission fluid low or contaminated? Try a cooling system pressure test.
 
The oil is at a higher pressure than the coolant. It will push into the oil if they are mixing somewhere.
