Default Oil in Radiator

I have an 88 CRX SI w/ a SOHC ZC. I swapped out the motor about 20K mi ago and just recently I have been getting oil in the radiator. I checked oil down below no water thankfully. But I'm still losing a quart a week w/o burning any and that's just crazy. I'm thinking my HG is on it's way out, but is there anyone that has another possibility? Hopefully a little more convienent to mess with, i really don't want to pull this motor apart too.

Headgasket, possible cracked head, but you definatly have a problem.

Tear it down and have the head and block checked.
