Default BBC gurus, oil in the radiator...

It's a fresh build with less than a dozen miles. No water in the pan but it's definately pushing oil into the cooling system somewhere and showing up in the radiator.
There is not an oil cooler in the rad.
I'm guessing one of the usual suspects, head gasket, galley plug didn't seal, or worst case a hairline crack...

Any dianostic tips before I tear into it? Thoughts on running some dye through to help highlight the culprit?
