Well after you go ahead and do all that, go ahead and check the head gaskit for shits anyways, its likely youve got other things wrong with it, and youll need to replace the oil pan gaskit as well.
But after all that go ahead and smell the exhaust & see if it smells sweet like honey, if so youve still got coolant atleast entering a cylander and being blown out the rear end, which would then tell me after fixing those things there and checking the head and intake manifold gaskits that youve still got a major leak somewhere in the block.
FYI, the 91-94 3vze engines had a recall on the heads and head gaskits because of abnormal growth of the heads and wear of the gaskits while engine is running. The solution was the 3vzfe and then in 95 the introduction of the 5vzfe.
