If there is any significant amount of oil the coolant it is usually the oil cooler that is leaking. When the engine is running the oil will go into the coolant. When you shut it off, the pressure remaining in the cooling system will now force coolant into the oil system. I have seen them leak so much that the oil and coolant both looked the same.
