Well, OK, now it looks like the engine needs some work to seal the head(s) to the block.
They might as well do both sides while they are at it. What a pain for you. Keep us posted. humfrz |

In case you guys want to see what a blown head gasket look like - this is where mine started to leak. And before ANYONE says ANYTHING - my engine is 100% stock.

Yeah, I inspected the PCV, the fitting was bone dry. If you run your hand under the intake runners and surrounding wiring, it's all wet with oil. So looking like oil is spraying or squirting. The paper towel test in my case also followed the seam of the head gasket. If it was the PCV, it would soak that portion of the towel. It didn't.
