Where are you seeing it? You sure you've bled the coolant system well?

when you put new oil into your engine did you give it a good flush? when i did my conversion it had some "snot" in the oil even after they flushed it so i ran a propper oil flush and dropped the oil and started again, this completely fixed it.

I had the same trouble a while back. Check the oil cooler.
