Is there anything else besides a blown head o-ring, base gasket, that would cause oil in the coolant, like the above mentioned?

My coolant system also builds pressure up and then locks up on me, I'v got it tore down now, but trying to make sure that I cover everything before I put it back together.

Thanks

If the cooling system is pressuring up, it has to be something on the top end. Either an inner head o-ring or cracked or warped head.
