I remember old time advise, in a tractor, when coolant got in the motor oil, to drain the coolant, and replace it with kerosine. Change the motor oil and filter too. Go ahead and use it.
My understanding is that, coolant will eat away the babbit, looks like a worm went thru the bearing.
A guy has a 2002 gas pickup, with that problem. Uses that truck occasionally, I told him to make those changes, to buy him some time 'till he gets it repaired. Getting the coolant out of there should slow or stop any further bearing damage. Keep the radiator cap loose for no pressure, Watch fluid levels, that engine doesn"t get too full or radiator get too low. What Say Ye?
