QUESTION: It is a stick. The oil level was not low before hand but it is now. There is not alot of engine noise when starting. The way I found out was when I parked the truck, came back to the truck 5 minutes later and I could smell anti freeze like it was running hot. I took off the radiator cap and water and oil started coming out. I flushed it out and it was all in the lines. Somebody said the timing chain wore a hole in the cover.

Answer
Whoever told you that is right, this is why I asked those questions about engine noise etc, the timing chain will wear a hole into the inside of the timing cover when the chain is worn into a water passage, this happens over time. The timing cover should be removed for inspection but I'm sure you will find that this is the case.
