My educated guess is those are holes in the head that should not be there. What were they weeping? Should not be coolant there. Those areas inside the head are where the push rods for the valves come through, so it should be oil. I am going to say those are the ends of core wires from when the head was cast and they did not get placed in the correct location. Now they are leaking because the casting has a hole there. Should really be the end of a wire or rod in there. I would have to see the head with my own eyes to say for sure. Maybe some good pictures of the inside with the valve cover off may confirm or debunk my idea. I am in a bit of a hurry right now and I cannot find a good web result to link that would explain it. I did find one link that sort of gives an example of what I am talking about. In the link scroll down, until you see the bold words ..Core Material.. right above that in diagram ..h.. it shows a hanging core. In your case the core rod ends shifter and poked through the outside of the core. We will see if others agree with my theory. I believe they could be sealed with epoxy. (JB Weld) Remember I am calling this an educated guess. Other wise for the bubbling gasket trying to retorque would be my first steps.

The discussion started out with the following post: "I was about 14 (part of the problem) when I got stuck. I was disking with a cab equipped IH 966. The window was dirty and I was driving into the evening sun. It was hard to see and it was my first pass down the field. I got the tractor so stuck that the underside of the tractor was resting on the ground. My uncle wanted
