Sure hate it for you, but on the brite side all those extra pony's you've been thinking about could start being added on. Pull it tear it down, find the problem and start putting in all those extras:drink: I know it's not much help but don't just drain the oil and keep on runnin it hopen it'll fix itself cause it won't you'll end up with more damage.

If the engine has not been over heated recently, the exhaust is most probable. If you have recently overheated the engine for any reason, I would lean towards head gasket and/or intake gasket.
