These are the exact symptoms of a blown head gasket. A simple search would have yielded you this information.

If you have oil in your coolant, and coolant in your oil ... it probably is a head gasket. Unless you blew a hole in your block.

either way it sounds like the head needs to come off... you will know if you have a hole on your piston, sunk sleeve, warped head, or whatever else when you get it cracked open. 0 compression would lead me to think worse than just a headgasdket

I think you have headgasket and piston damage. I've seen huge sections of headgasket blown out in Honda applications, pushed out the back of the block in DSMs, and still have some compression although it's super low.
