560 head gasket leaking comp on push rod side

Posted by todd08 on December 10, 2001 at 20:07:40 from (199.240.181.83):

I have a 560 that I am about to paint, noticed head gasket leaking oil on push rod side only, so I tightened head bolts to 90ft/lbs today and reset valves, all head bolts on push rod side loose probably a quarter of a turn, drove her 4 or 5 miles to wash off remaining oil noticed while idling that I could see compression bubbling thru head gasket on push rod side. My question is it the sleeves shaking down in the block or just probably a burnt head gsk sealing ring that causing the leak. I realize I probably won't know tell I pull the head off. What's your professional opinion.
