Default How does this look?

First time at a junkyard and ripping off a valve cover. How's this look to you guys?

It's a d16y7.

Looks like it has a LOT of miles, or someone didn't change their oil very often.

According to his post history he has a Y8 that seems to be crapping out. Why he's going fora Y7 head is beyond me.

Yeah sorry. Was just curious. First time looking at inside of the engine so I decided to ask so I have an idea of what a engine with a ton of miles or an engine in great shape looks like. My y8 is having compression issues as well. Sorry for not being specific.
