a couple more head gasket questions
Okay, I managed to successfully place the head gasket back on but I'm a bit concerned. After reconnecting all the lines, hoses and harnesses, I noticed that there's a bit of a leak coming out by the number 4 cylinder under the upper rad hose. It looks like oil but it's not coming out quickly, just looks like it stays moist.
I did notice that when placing the head back on, there was a little port under the head where when I tipped the head to the dizzy side, oil came pouring out. I tried to drain this out as best I could and then placed it back on the block. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else had this oil in the same spot as me.
This is my firsit head gasket change and I'm sure that it didn't go 100% so if any of you can help me that would be awsome!

When i changed my head gasket i noticed some oil in the sam spot you are explaining. Turned out to be my valve cover gasket. You should change that too.
