I have a 2001 F250 super duty V-10. Not sure whats goin on here but ive had engines blow head gaskets before and seen the Oil in the radiator.  I went to change and flush my radiator and everything in the reservoir was milky brown or tan. flushed it twice got everything flowing nice and green.  I drove for about half an hour on highway and city.  Ive never seen the truck smoke or overheat or even close to it.  Any idea whats going on here?  IS it possible the head gasket is just leaking a little bit?  The oil when i changed it right after i did the flush and fill was fine with no anti freeze in it and its not burning oil that i can tell.

Possibly a leaking oil cooler/filter adapter...
