If it is a cracked block, or head or a bhg. Then wouldnt it have low compression?

And there wasnt a bunch of water in the oil, the dip stick looked a little whiter than it should b, and under the cap, was white stuff.

You could pressure test the coolant system and see where it starts pouring out of, but it's unnecessary in my opinion...

ok, so i did the leak down test. The back 2 cylinders, seemed to drop to drop slow, these r the two with oil in them. ( also the car has meen jacked up in the front for a day now, so oil would hav run back ). all the others either didnt drop, or dropped very very slowly. And i was using a comp guage. And it dosent seal very well at the o rings. I can hear it hiss from the sometimes.

Depending on how much oil is in there it's probably not leaking out past the rings either.. leaving you with a crack, bad HG, or bad valves. My vote is still HG or crack.
Is the coolant contaminated? Do a pH test and see if it's caustic. IMHO, any way about it, the head is coming off.

Ok, so i just got the head off. And it is indeed a bhg. My question now is, what would hav caused the head gasket to blow if it was replaced only 6 months ago? it blew on cyl 1,3,5 between the cylinder and the water journals. Should i just put the new gasket in, or should i get the head shaved? thanks
