Steam from the tailpipe, and water in the oil means you have a faulty head gasket. Not a good thing. The steam is the antifreeze/water coolant leaking into the heads (bad gasket) getting heated by the engine and coming out as steam. The water in the oil is the same deal, but it;s collecting in the oil so it isn't coming out of the tailpipe. You need a new head gasket. I promise.

1996 Eldorado Northstar seems to overheat how do you check for blown head gasket?
Usually a blown head gasket will cause your exhaust to blow out white smoke and you will have coolant in your oil. Check your oil to see if the oil is discolored. HTHon the northstar this isn't always true. the exhaust pressure is so great that it will more than likely blow the coolant out of the tailpipe before mixxing with the oil. this is what a dealership told me when i asked if i could use this method

What if you have raw fuel coming out of the tailpipe?
I would check and make sure that isn't just water. Condensation occurs on the inside of the tailpipe as the vehicle warms up... If you had gasoline coming into your tailpipe you would experience backfiring, extreme backfiring.
What causes a 1997 cadillac deville to overheat you have changed the radiatorwaterpumpfans and the coolant disappears and does not leak and still overheat?
Check your oil and see if it's milky. If it is then it's leaking inside. Does it steam out of the tailpipe? If it does you have a bad head or head gasket. have you replaced the thermostat? if you haven't, do that first, it may be stuck closed.
No leaks but lose coolant?
Could be getting into engine. Check tailpipe emissions for white smoke.
