Why would your 97 lumina be leaking coolant near the tensioner?

My 98 Lumina had the same issue. Found out that the Coolant opening that connects the engine block to the timing cover leaks! This is just behind the belt tensioner. Have to remove the timing cover and in my case, I used High-Temp gasket maker, because the machine surfaces were not flat causing this area to leak. I would suggest not to use a gasket, but instead use the High-Temp silicone! ~Steve

Why would there be coolant leaking into the oil in a 1995 Gran am?
I'm assuming your grand am has a 3400 v6 which are known for intake and head gaskets leaking. so its possible that one of those gaskets are leaking so bad that coolant is leaking from intake/heads down onto your valvetrain and then down into your oil pan. more than likely its your intake gaskets leaking.
