The antifreeze issue could be as simple as overfill if you have no catch can. Coolant will expand as it gets hot then reduce as it cools. Mine stays just about an inch over the tubes. Could also be cap is bad, mine does run a 4 lb cap now, but 0 pounds was normal when it was new. Let the coolant level itself before panic if its not running hot.

I have no suggestions about the oil pressure except it does sound low.
