I have been running rich off and on. ill get a rich o2 code flash and after about 40 miles it will go away. Which do you think it could be? Too rich or valve stem seals? Or possibly both?

I would keep an eye on your number 5 cylinder. It's a bit over 9% short of your best cylinder. Just make sure that one doesn't drop anymore for sure. They say a tolerance of 10% is the most you really should have in a real healthy motor.
