While changing my exhaust manifold (cracked w/ hole) I discovered #1 cylinder intake port was full of oil. I haven't run this engine but was assured it ran ok. Looks like the only way oil could get there would be down the valve guide or up the valve tappet - and if true, therer must be lots of wear to have this much oil puddling. BTW: the intake manifold and other intake/exhaust ports looked normal.
Any experience w/ this on your flathead? I'd like some advice. Thanks.
