Certainly don’t want it to be HGF but what other explanations are there?
Four litres plus is a huge amount - assuming the system was filled and bled beforhand you woul seem to have a serious issue - ignore it and you will cook the engine.
As mentioned, oil cooler feed pipes behind the rad, water pump, thermostat in the vee, plastic t piece in the vent pipe, radiator and plastic feed pipe elbow - any more anyone?
