I am getting oil in the radiator of my '97 SS Camaro. Any suggestion on what the cause is and how to fix.

There are a few possibilities. Could be a blown head gasket, cracked head, if there is a oil cooler built into the radiator that could be broken. Is there a milky substance if you pull the dipstick? Pretty much it is going to be a major repair.

Oil in engine seems fine. I have had blown head gaskets and other problems in the past with other cars and got water in the oil, but never got oil in the water. Since this is a six speed there should not be any oil cooler in the radiator.

Do you have a power steering cooler that's cooled by coolant like the later z28s? That could be it too.
