Seems like you have a leak not a crack.

Take that header off and scrape all that **** off the header and head. Get it good and clean and put and OEM gasket in there. Torque the bolts down to spec, which I forget at the moment, and be good to go.

i think he means this spot right here....
looks like it is leaking at the weld....if that's the spot you're talking about....cause look at the pipe to the left of it and you see no black carbon on it.

Re: Is this a leak? (iH8RICERZ)
thanks for the replies guys. the guy that had the car before me made the mess with the header gasket. i'm gonna get the proper gasket for it soon tho.
i believe u are correct. 94GSR engine built in JDM land in 93. the block stamp says B18C1. JDM would be just B18C correct?
