I just put in my KA and I started it with bad timing a few times and when I pulled the dipstick and there was milky white oil on it. So I know coolant is in the system but what are the probable causes? Are there any symptons that can distinguish exactly what the problem is?

That's water so you could have a head gasket problem or a crack somewhere in the water jacket.
