Can a clutch repair cause oil to enter radiator? Sign In

This is about my son's 99 Honda Accord. Not sure about the engine size. He has a lot of oil in the radiator. It turns into that brown froth that I've read about here. This is what I would like to know: This car has standard transmission and the clutch was recently repaired (an $1,150 job). Is it possible that the clutch repair is related to the oil in coolant problem? I'm guessing this is the expected blown head gasket. But if it's something more sinister, I'd like to know. Thanks.

No, no connection to the transmission.
