Tell tale signs are water in the oil and oil in the water. Check the rocker box for a white emulsion, if there is some it will point towards a head gasket problem.

Not to difficuly to change. If you have the hanes manual and a torque wrench it will be easy.

is it definately oil?
it could just be water thats mixed with carbon out of the exhaust.

as ben says, a compression test should tell you that the gaskets gone.
