01 - 3.5L - Oil in Coolant

It appears there is oil in the coolant. I have read that the throttle body gasket could be a culprit as the oil in engine appears clean with no coolant (no head gasket issue if I understand correctly). Any experience with this? Also of note is I just has to replace the throttle position sensor and cam position sensor. WHen doingh the throttle position sensor the I noticed a large amount of black buid up. Also getting lots of black smoke out of the exhaust which is staining the white car! COuld it be the bad gasket on the throttle body is allowing oil in and it is getting burned and exhausted? Just a DIY'er looking for some help. Thanks

I would consider www.steelseal.com , or blue devil.
Usually any contamination of oil/fuel in the coolant is a sign of a bad Head, or Intake leak.

Do a Google ''Youtube DIY Auto Head gasket repair scotty''
