Angry Mixing oil into the coolant. Bike runs fine :-/

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! She did it a couple years ago. Threw some block seal(!!_I know..) in her and hit the road. Ran fine. Stopped mixing oil+water. Put the bike into storage for over a year. Just pulled her back out a couple weeks ago and she has been running fine.. until the other day when she started mixing again :-(

Does it sound like a gasket? Cracked block?? Maybe a cracked oil or coolant passage?? I'm dreading having to pull the motor and tear it apart. Think I'd rather just try to find a cheap replacement motor than go through that crap. Killing part is how it runs just fine...

One potential source is the gaskets on the oil cooler. Do a search for it, theres more info on here somewhere.
