I just fixed a oil leak from a 1'' freeze plug from the back of the crank. I want to make sure the leak is fixed, so I pull it on the rack, and my buddy tells me to look at this..

Well, he shows me where coolant is slowing seaping down on the drivers side head..We look at the passenger and it is a little...

Motor is a 408 built in 06' and has 26k on it...Never been sprayed and is driven 300 miles a week...never overheated..EWP, and cooling fan switch..Cometic head gaskets....

I'm just like "WTF"....I know they can give, but damn.....I just ordered new Cometics from my builder, he thought it was kinda weird too, since the car really hasn't been beat on...

Any insight appreciated...

where exactly is the leak coming from? i had a 5.3 that started leaking from an exhaut bolt. it had a small crack in hthe hole where the bolt threaded in, i put some permatex in there and sealed it up.

It's coming from the head gasket....You can see it ooze out a trickle...Nothing major, just wondered why?

Get the heads re-surfaced and copper spray your gaskets when the heads go back on. I copper spray all head gaskets when I put heads back on anything. I've never had a leaking issue.
