Water in oil?????

Hey list,

I really need your help on this one. My fathers 1990 4Runner started off with a small water leak coming from some where on the front passenger side but we couldn't pin point the leak. I decided to check the oil and sure enough there is water in it. What do you think we're dealing with here? (Head gasket?). Your advice and help would be greatly apprecited.....

Thanks
John
