It depends. What will your new steam system be? If you go with the new Burnham Megasteam they have a specific way to pipe a HW zone off their boiler. Just simply follow their instructions and you will be fine.
Are you having the install done and if so are they familiar with steam?0 -

Thanks for the tips,,have installed many a steam boiler,but never a h.w. zone off it..0 -
Staying with oil ?
Best way in my opinion is to pressurize the zone with a coil .
Another option is a heat exchanger .
If the zone is lower than the boiler , I'd connect it directly to it . Gotta use a relay and aquastat to make sure the boiler don't steam if the water zone calls alone .0
