like most VAG 4cyl engines it has an oil/water heat exchanger mounted immediately above the oil filter, two hoses from the water system connect to it. If this perforates inside you somtimes get symptom similar to a head gasket failure, oil in water etc.

The oil system is pretty straightforward, oil pump driven by intermediate shaft, pickup filter in bottom of sump can get blocked in badly maintained engines, generally a very reliable system.
