Engine oil in coolant overflow tank...???

Hi.

There's an oily sludge floating on the coolant in the overflow tank.

Manual transmision so it can't be tranny fluid and it does smell like engine oil.

Any idea where it comes from?

I'm thinking head gasket, but would there be other hints to pinpoint the source?

Thanks!
