Have you pressure tested the coolant system? How do you know its burning coolant? If you are burning coolant its a blown headgasket or a cracked head. Oil leaking for the head gasket would be pretty rare, valve covers maybe. You realy should track that oil leak down before you make any decision about the head gaskets.
