94 passport coolant leak

Recently my passport ran hot on the interstate. When I surveyed the damage, i noticed that the top radiator hose was busted. After replacing the hose, it began to run hot again. It was then that i noticed a crack at the top of the radiator near the hose. We replaced the radiator tested it for about an hour and everything seemed to be fine. During my 2 hour trip home i notice my oil pressure had dropped to zero. when i finally got to my destination my oil light came on. Now i'm having trouble starting the truck all together. All of the fluids seem to be fine ecept for the antifreeze. Everytime I poor any fluid in it seems to leak out from around the transmission on the drivers side, whether it's running or not.

Where is the leak coming from and what can i do to fix it, how much would it cost?

Does having zero oil pressure have anything to do with the leak or with it starting?

I'd really appreciate some help.

How many miles, how long do you think you were driving with no water , which state has the car been in the most and finally. You may have a cracked engine block :-((

It has around 200,000 miles on it. i was driving for a little more that an hour when i noticed it was begining to get hot. i pulled over immeadietly and noticed the busted hose. i usually only drive around town in mississippi. My radiator fluid is green. i added new fluid when i put in the new radiator. Everytime i go outside to check it the fluid level is low, i add water and underneith it begins to leak. I also changed the oil after i put in the new radiator.

Ok, but pull the dipstick for the oil and look what color it is. If it is milky coffee colored ....UR screwed. Check the oil filler cap too and see what color it is.

Maybe you have a rotted out hose somewhere. Fill it up and watch where it comes from. At least you don't seem to have a blown gasket or cracked block.
That's all I have.......
