Well is the rad. down two plus gallons now??? if the radiator is down then yep ya got a leak some place as to where not sure as i am not there looking at it . But antifreeze would come out first when ya pull the plug normally . And runny BLACK would sound more like fuel in the oil due to the seals on the injection pump. And if the oil cooler was leaking you would have oil in the Rad. As for coolant level it should be down about two inches from the bottom of the filler neck otherwise it will push it out as the engine warms. Now if this tractor did not have a strong enough antifreeze mixture in it it could have froze and cracked the block or head over time . Here again i am not there to look it over . Before i would have even thought about getting it running i would have checked the rad first to see if there was coolant then i would have cracked the drain plug to see what came out first. Now normally if it did have coolant in the crankcase and you did fire her up the oil would look like milky mud and antifreeze oil and engines don't mix well and will take out the bearings and crank and cam . SOOOOOOoooooo hear is what to do , remove the oil pan fill the rad with coolant -water if it is not freezing and get a radiator pressure tester and pump up the cooling system to around 18-20 psi and start looking for drips also remove the valve cover as that way you can see if it is coming from on top of the head , may save ya extra work. If you find nothing then all you are out is a pan gskt and a valve cover gskt.
