Icon3 Over heating..

I have a 92 Integra, and today, my engine started over heating and smoking. One of the rubber tubes from the back of the head connecting up to the left side of the manifold, has a little puncture in it and liquid shoots out from it when my car is running. Is this oil? I checked the oil, and there was zero on the stick. I refilled it, and it was on the dip stick and stayed in without the car running. Also, the antifreeze got drained out. My car leaks oil when it's sitting there also but only a few drops. Is it from the little rubber tube from the back of the head connecting up by the left of the manifold? It's only about 2-3 inches long. Thanks guys.

that little line is a coolant line. refill and bleed your coolant system. watch the temp, but your head gasket may be gone bro. the oil may have just been low. always keep an ee on the oil level. if your oil was way too low it would run loud and knock from no oil in the oil pump. after youre done bleeding the coolant system, use a block tester to see if exhaust gasses are present in the coolant system

if you can, do the block test in the morning and make sure you bleed it when you replace the line. if the head gasket blew, you dont want to risk warping the head worse than it may already be. there is a service limit on that warpage
