it's quite rare for just oil and water to mix, but can happen. normally not in any quantity though, and from how you describe it there seems to be a lot of mixing happening that would suggest the modine to me. fingers crossed.
No m8,coolant didn't pressurize at all,had header tank cap off cause I had only just put coolant in.
Got more than my fingers crossed m8!!!!!!
