Default Re: Seepage at the head

I would replace the head gasket. When the head is off check the flatness of the head and look for cracks. If the head is not flat have it machined. Cracks can be stitched with small threaded studs. Torqueing the head must be done following the proper tightening sequence. Excessive paint on the nuts has nothing to do with coolant leaks.
Cheers
