1992 B234f 940GLE 16v sedan clean car

Hi all,
Winter arriving... much humidity. Noticed a few weeks ago like the window has an oily film on it.
Have been suspecting a heater core leak.
This morning the smell was intense. Once the engine heated up, I noticed STEAM coming out of the vents. Very difficult if not impossible to clear windshield, blower on high.
Correct to suspect heater core leak?
Do they tend to drip though the A/C drain hole? Nothing dripping inside.
How is the job? Like that of the 240?
Before I order a heater core and dismantle half the car, are there any joints under there that I should check?
Let me know youor expeirneces, anywhere this is documented?

Thanks!
