well in the the summer the truck over heated and blead the compression into the rad and I parked the truck and hasn't run the truck for 4 monthes and there is a oil slik in the top of the rad now but it started right up and idles ok now but need to know if it is a gasket or the block the oil is fine and doesn't burn any I have read the stuff here but they are all little different symptoms

Just looking for feed back before tear down I have a spare but unshure about how it runs

If this oil film and pressurized rad was noticed after the engine overheated; I would suspect that it would be a head gasket issue.
