NO OIL IN COOLANT OR IN OIL
OIL TEMP 200-230

6.0 from ****? Sounds like someone needs some maintenance along with knowledge first.
That is a high ECT/EOT delta. Oil cooler possibly.
How high is the coolant level when cold in the degass bottle? About 1/4" below min is new max.

Oil cooler will NOT cause puking. Cracked EGR cooler or blown head gaskets will. A cracked oil cooler will leak oil into the cooling system.

If you have an EGR delete your looking at a head gasket job. Get ready.

do an EGR delete and more than likely you will be doing head studs...

EDIT: and with oil temps reaching 230 replace the oil cooler while your in there.
