If no oil shows up in the coolant, then a cracked head/exhaust port etc allowing exhaust or combustion pressure directly into the coolant.

My POS Cavalier did this, I changed the head gasket and it was fine and the head was very straight, But lots of green dried stuff on one piston, then started loosing coolant. Eventually the cat converter plugged up with coolant residue.
