My froth was reddish-brown. Looked just like fresh engine oil whipped up. In my experience, if its a headgasket there should be some coolant in the oil as well. Check for white froth on the top of the oil dipstick. If its the trans cooler, check for any reduction in ATF level. I think the failure percentages are higher on the ATF cooling piping through the radiator than a blown headgasket. Like my old professor said, "when you hear hoof beats, don't go looking for zebras".
