1987 Nissan Stanza oil leaking into my cooling system

1987 Nissan Stanza mileage: 90,000. I have oil leaking into my cooling system. I had a compression test and everything checked out ok, so I guess it's not a leaky head gasket. Any other ideas?

The compression check that you did may not have eliminated the head gasket as a possible source of your oil leak. Your symptoms would indicate that the head gasket is causing your problem. We would take the head off and inspect the gasket here.
