Well I found the problem. I took the pully off the water pump and it was leaking at the weeper hole. It gave the appearance of oil because it was collecting oil grime from the block and by the time it got to forming on the belt it looked like oil. I don't understand why the pressure didn't bleed down when I put a pressure test on the cooling system. I also have a coolant leak at the top rear left side. I can't seem to locate the problem. I think I'll have to remove the TB so I can get a look at the therm. housing and anything else in that area.
