Water in oil and oil in coolant system

Ok I'll start off at the beginning. Monday of last week I changed my water pump as it was leaking. I changed it at a friends house so I just added water until I could get home. On my way home I stopped and got some coolant and oil. Changed both. Tuesday morning I woke up checked my water was a few oz low. Figured it just needed to be burped. Wednesday checked it agin was all full. Thought I was good to go. So Friday it was running fine like no problems. All of a sudden it seemed like it was losing power. I stopped and was low on water. Added some water to it. Drove a few more miles and it shut off. The truck didn't over heat or anything. So when I started addin water again I noticed oil come up. Checked my dip stick water in it. I haven't done anything yet. I know the motor isn't locked up cause it spins freely. Could it be a warped head. Or maybe the gasket. We also had a crazy winter down here could it also possibly be freeze plugs. My radiator was holding some coolant in it still. This is on a 85 22re. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds like the same problem my '94re had.
