Always something.
Oil running out between the head and block beside head bolt at # 3 cylinder.Gonna retorque head bolts and if that don't work I'll have to replace dang head gasket.I got her a little hot when the dang raw water pump impellar went out back in november,and this is the result.I have since put a heat and oil pressure alarm on her,but to late to have prevented this deal.I just needed to whine a little.Ha

Glad to hear its ok, as long as its straight and with in specs you should be fine.
As for me I got water in my trans and that was the last straw. I just got a new ZF for it and I will be replacing the cooler as well.

I have been getting through my personal troubles for years, with a mantra passed on to me by my first boss/captain.
Boating is fun. Everytime the bolt rounds off, and you bust your knuckle on the manifold, remember, boating is fun. Spend a day prepping the boat for painting, then the next day you and your wife have the boat 7/8 finished, the only rain cloud in 100 miles rolls over and dumps its teeenny load, right on your 300$ awlgrip topcoat... Remember, Boating is fun. (that was today, btw)

So, I put the 3rd and final coat of awlgrip on the topside yesterday. Looks great, only a couple tiny flaws you'd never see.
Until the torrential rains overnight. Damnit. Looks like another (4th) coat is on the way. Boating is fun.
