This could also possible be a leak from the heater hose, which connects to the top of the block under the intake manifold. This is a cheap fix, as is a new thermostat gasket.
However, as you have signs of oil in you coolant tank, a failing head gasket might the most likely culprit.
But check the thermostat and heater hose first.

Good luck,
