It's only a temporary fix. What's going on with your Terc? I have one too!
first overheated towed to one garage they say oil in radiator (head gasket)
Sounds like they nailed it! It runs fine and no smoke because the gasket isn't blown at the cylinders. If there's oil in the coolant you can pretty much bet there's coolant in the oil also and that's a killer of engines
It very well could be transmission fluid, that happened to my friends mom. Check both engine and transmission fluid for signs of coolant or the level rising, if its leaking one way there will always be some sort of transfer of fluids at some point
trany is ok engine loos some (not much) oil, so must of the inner head gasket.
If your car burns much oil it would be a wise idea to replace the piston rings while the head is off as thats 70 percent of the work to change them
