    Could be either but head gasket is a more likely cause. Year, make and engine?

    I don’t see any discoloration in the coolant.

    Do bubbles decrease if you take discharge hose off air compressor?

    I'm not really familiar with those engines at all. Could be egr cooler, if they ever have one I don't know

    I did not check, if decrease, is it air compressor?

    If you unhook the compressor and the bubbles quit, the problem is your compressor. It's not common but it does happen
