That's usually how a blown head gasket will manifest itself on these cars. Oil leaks between the oil and coolant passages at the gasket failure point. Doubt you have a cracked head, but you're going to be able to have a look at it once you pull it for the gasket.
The biggest pain of all is going to be cleaning all that sludge out of the entire cooling system. Do a search. There's plenty of good info on this topic.
