Default Cream engine

ok yesterday I toke my Camaro out while I was cruising I noticed that the tempreture is not normal it reads 220 while before was 160-180 max it has 160 thermo I didnt care about it because I dont take the car out too much so I thought its just because the Camaro was sitting for a long time so I floored it till 3rd and then I noticed a smoke coming from the hood I checked the gauges everything is normal except for the tempreture gauge it was going till 240 so I stopped turned the ignition off opened the hood and the smoke was coming from the passenger exhaust manifold the rocker cover was leaking oil on the exhaust manifold I closed the hood came back home and let the car get cold the next day I decided to open the rocker cover and after fighting with the injectores wires (THANKS ALOT GM) I opened the cover and I wish I didnt opened it just see the pictures



the upper cover from scrapped firebird and its much cleaner than my camaro



I guess I got one of rare engines that can make power and cream in the same time lool
