So still I think the headgasket is nuked. hopefully I wont leak my precious mobil 1 anymore so I got that going for me. Also crappily painted the cam cover.
I had to take the timing belt off which of course means I had to get it back together without a cam getting off a tooth. It was my first time doing this and I was scared. So I am relieved it worked the first fire up.
I just had to tell someone after all that work.

"Your timing belt fu is strong. Who was your master?"
First time I did my timing belt, I got it off a tooth. It's the kind that requires you lift the engine off a mount a little bit to get at it, so double suck. The silver lining for me was that learned how to deal with the belt in 1/2 the normal time without lifting the engine from the mount.
There's nothing quite like rubbing it all over your body to "get it."
