Make sure system is well bled of air. Open radiator cap and start engine. Run until hot and thermostat is open (coolant flowing in radiator. Keep radiator full and also open any bleeder ports on thermostat housing or in hoses until no air comes out.

No to both. The water pump is chain driven and takes water from one side and pumps it out under pressure from the other. The thermostat is fully enclosed in a housing with no access to oil.
Oil in Coolant only comes from a failed head gasket where the oil and water channels are in close proximity and under combustion pressure of hundreds of pounds.
Water pumps are designed to pump water through the engine, radiator, and heating system. Water pumps will not cause oil to enter the cooling system.Oct 4, 2016
Check the hoses to the inside heater core for kinks. Check heater (not radiator) core for being plugged. Check heater valve to see if it lets coolant through when turned on.
Could be the radiator fan. Running the heater adds a second source of getting rid of heat in the coolant. Is the radiator fan running when it is hot ? Are you sure the cooling system is full ?
not at all times can thermostat contol your cooling system, check for water leaks, water pump, radiator fans(check for speed) if all your cooling systems are good , replace your cylinder head gasket,
