My 06 Chrysler 300 had oil going into the radiator. The shop is telling me the engine is holding pressure and are ruling out a blown head gasket. Also said the oil cooler is holding pressure as well. What else could cause this problem?

Could the oil be mixing from the oil cooling area into the coolant recivoir? I have no oil in the engine and just change all the tasks from the heads up!
