Engine Help!!

Engine Help!!
I have a 93 Honda civic ex with a d16z6 engine. The car had a blown head gasket so i removed the head and had it planed. Once the block had been cleaned and a new gasket in place I reassembled the head on the car.
Once everything was reconnected I started to fill the coolant. I noticed that coolant was coming out of the oil bolt (Bolt was off cause i was flushing the system). I was quite frushtrated so i removed the head again cause i figured i had done something wrong. I let coolant sit in the chambers with the head off for a few days to see if the level went down at all due to a crack in the block. It stayed perfectly level. I purchased a new gasket since they are crush to fit and reattached the head. I am still haveing the same problem!!! The coolant is leaking into the oil somewhere.
I removed the oil pan to see if i could located where it coming in and it seems that it is dripping into the oil pan somewhere by the first cylinder. Could there be a crack in the head somehwere that could be causing this????
I would greatly appreciate any help cause i have no idea where to go from here??
Thanks everyone!

Re: Engine Help!! (funk2244)
Bump for him. I could be dead nuts wrong on this one, but is there a way a block can be pressure tested? I would first make sure the head isnt worse than you thought, and when they shaved it, it didnt fix it.
