Sorry for the late response to everyone. Couldn't get the internet to work after I posted and I get very limited service with my phone. Thanks everyone for the info. Im going to wipe the engine down as best I can as we are parked currently and its sleeting/snowing out and surprisingly cold. Born and raised in NH you never think that Texas would get this cold or snow. Now I might have jumped to conclusions with the head gasket leaking and slightly panicked with the oil sprayed on stuff. Now my valve covers are blue which are bolted to the cylinder heads which are bolted to the engine block. It looked like a majority of the oil is below the cylinder heads and it appears to be on both sides. Ill check the PCV valve as well when Im cleaning things up. This being our first major excursion(3months in) I get a little nervous with any engine problems as its not my strong suit. Im an autobody technician by trade so I can figure my way around cars fairly quickly. Just out of my comfort zone a little bit with old motors. I have the blacklist saved but I couldn't get any internet service on my phone which its saved on but ill be calling Dick Patterson here in a few. Once again thanks for all the support guys. My number is (603)235-1576
