Default Blown Headgasket??

I am trying to figure out if I have a blown Headgasket or not. I have a JDM B16 in a 92 hatch. When I went on a break this morning, I noticed some oil under the car. I looked under the hood, and in the back of the block, there is a huge trail of oil going down it. There is also a huge trail of coolant right next to it. both of them appear to be leaking from the head. The oil level in the engine is normal, and the coolant is full. Does this problem sound like a blown headgasket?? Any help is appreciated. Thanks

You can check if it is a blown head gasket if you check the compression on the block. It will tell you if there is a leak. Good luck with your problem.
