Well, if its a head gasket, you should experience overheating at some point as combustion will start blowing into the cooling system, pressurizing and heating it. If you have so much coolant getting into the oil gallery that its displacing oil to the point that you are overflowing onto the ground in puddles, major problem. Your coolant will break down the oil, and there will go the bearings. Could be an intake manifold gasket sending antifreeze down below where its going right into the oil pan. Intake manifold gaskets are easy to change overall as compared to cracks in either the heads of block. IF you are going to take the time to pull the intake manifold, go one step further and pull the heads. You will already be there, take the extra step. Get yourself the "top end" gasket set, and replace every gasket in it, including the head gaskets. You can do the top end in less than four hours while the engine sets in the engine compartment. You will need a gasket scraper, some towels to plug the cylinders, and a shop vac to suck out anthing that falls into the cylinders like dirt. If those don't do it, the only thing left is a cracked block or head.
Bars Leaks or something of the sort to stop that much coolant getting into the oil that it overflows? Not likely.
