Most of the time it is the engine oil cooler that leaks oil into the cooling system on the V6 engine. It is several posts about it in the archives.
All depending on how bad it is and how much is in there, it can be quite a challenge to clean it out.
If the radiator is old, don't even bother trying to clean it out but install a new one. That will save a lot of man hours for the clean out. This is what the radiator can look like after spending several hours trying to clean it out with almost boiling water and citrus soda detergent from my parts washer. It was a lost cause.
