Have you pulled the carpet back to get a good look at the coolant expansion tank? It's semi-opaque plastic (somewhat translucent)... you might be able to get a better idea of what's going on or how much oil is in the tank. I'm with you that it could be the oil cooler, but it's "possible" that oil entered from the top (some moron could have started topping off the oil via the coolant fill...hey, it's only an inch apart). I mentioned this because (again, "possible") that cleaning/replacing the tank and a good coolant flush solves your issue without changing the oil cooler. There are several threads here on coolant tank replacement, here's just one I found with some good pics:

Best of luck
