Visually inspect it for corrosion,cracks etc then try putting a long straight edge across it to check for warps as cherroneballs said.
Unless I misunderstood you said it already needs valve stem seals so when you pull it down to replace them you can remove the valves,clean them lap them and replace the seals.
