my ls is leaking oil all around the head and its only got 65k on it soo its not a worn our motor but i replaced the head gasket and the spark plug gaskets and still no fix when i drive hard with it and then open my hood i see oil all around the head

 

i think...... if you clean out the oil n have somenoe run da car for you... u should be able to find where da oil is coming from...

and sometimes even you replace the headgasket, it might be the gasket alignment problem.

 

i had the gasket alighnment looked at to and it seems to be fine do u think my head could be going bad?????

 

Has the motor ever been overheated? I ask this becasue your problem could be coming from one of several issues:

-warped head (not likely, but is possible)
-the fact that you may need to simply retorque the headbolts
-didn't install the head correctly (possible, but I will assume that you installed it correctly)
-there may be an oil plug or something that blocks oil that may have rotted out (very unlikely that some freakish problem like this occured)

How do you know for SURE that the oil isn't draining down from something else? Cam seals, distributor seal, etc? By the way, is it coming from the timing cover side of the head?

 

its probably the cam seal even if it dont look like it the oil will leak down and follow the head lines

my money is there...

 

check the valve cover gasket, the rubber gaskets that go under the bolts.
