I'm going to second Sugar Bear: two distinct problems there - coolant in combustion cylinders came first, then the chain went.

And Christuna as well: fix it, or give it to someone who can. If you can get it within 500 miles of my house, I'll take. Or actually 300 miles. I think that's where my free towing deal kicks in.

But you never really know what's going on in there until you get it apart. So start pulling off bits and lay them out in the spare bedroom or the floor of the kitchen. Bluntly, at this point you probably can't make the problem any worse than it already is in there. So enjoy. Take some pics and you'll get all kinds of help figuring it out.

Experience has taught me two very important things about this process:

Barrier off the parts so the dog can't ingest any of them.

And ignore the threats from your partner to leave. You can't let stuff like that distract you. It's too late to turn back once the house stinks of oil and Rover has a chunk of valve seal lodged in his gut.
