I had a Farmall 460 once that sounded like the same problem. I didn't want to tear the motor apart as I was getting ready to get rid of the tractor. When I would start it after it sat a week, there would be a couple of drips of antifreeze that would come out of the exhaust. There was no coolant in the oil. When it ran for 20 or 30 seconds, the problem went away. I talked to a "red jammies guy" about it and he said that he thought it sounded like it was getting a pin hole leak in the head gasket. He suggested adding a can of radiator stop leak to the coolant to seal the leak. I did that and the problem went away. I'm not saying it was a permanent fix but it kicked the can down the road for a while. In your case, it might buy you a little time to get by until you can fix it right. Three or four months later I got rid of the tractor so I don't know how it finally ended up.
