Problem: I have coolant in my oil pan (Super M-TA). This is a recent development, maybe the change in weather opened a hole (I haven't used it much in the last few weeks). The valve head (refurbished from a reputable place) and gasket are new, there's no white smoke in the exhaust (exhaust is clear), and there's no oil in the radiator. I'm assuming the crack is in the coolant/lower engine wall somewhere or maybe the head gasket or head have some sort of leak. My fixes are to tighten the head bolts down after the engine warms up (I initially tightened them cold at 110 ft-lbs and never went back and checked them) and to add Ceramic Engine Seal (this worked on my H). The engine sat outside for about 10 years with about half the coolant in it until I restored it. Any other suggestions?
