I thank everyone for all of the help. I removed the oil cooler and it was not the problem, the gasket between the cooler and plate appeared to be bad. I cleaned everything up, made a new gasket and flushed the system and everything seems to be good now. I changed the oil and the old oil looked to be free of any water. I was able be drive it this past weekend.

Thanks for the follow-up, glad that was the problem with such an easy fix. It is amazing to me that the 35 and newer oil coolers almost never cause problems even after 80 years. The 34 (a one-year only design) has proven to have a quite high failure rate after all these years and the usual solution is to machine a bypass shuttle within the housing. The 34s also present the problem of having a 1-year-only water jacket plate.
