If the sensing tip located inside the exhaust stream is subjected to anti freeze the sensor will be destroyed; a number of manufacturers recommend not using certain types of silicone based gasket sealants on the intake manifold or components that could otherwise facilitate a path to the o2 sensing tip.
If the cylinder head gasket is compromised A/F could find it's way into the combustion chamber, then its a short trip to the o2, my understanding is that the sensor is poisoned within minutes of this type of breach!

That would be great if you post some pics. I have an '05 MCS that has 70,000 on it (so out of warranty) that has mystery coolant disappearance...I'll have my mechanic take a look next time it is in the shop, but in the meantime, I'd love to see a pic to get an idea if I can see this myself. I'm a girl...I have not idea where to look .
