Default lots and lots of oil in coolant, classic uk turbo 98

Hi, I have a 1998 uk classic turbo, it has emptied at least half of the sump oil into the coolant. The remainder of the oil in the sump is nice and clean(and not contaminated).

The car drives well and recently passed a MOT emissions test with excellent readings, I do not suspect head gasket(maybe wrong) the car drives and runs very well.

oil cooler maybe?? or turbo??

one other thing the hoses seem to be under quite a lot of pressure when the engine is running even with the rad cap off(strange)

any idea's please??

thanks
pete
