Thanks to all here I was able to make Rusty the swamp survivor come back to life today. Bad news, water in oil, oil in water. New gasket was used (copper)and torque to 55. it would have to be a very small crack in the water jacket because I cleaned that motor for months and really looked hard at the surfaces...At least I have video of it running.

I figure I can drop it off at your house and you can Flex Seal the water jacket. I'll even buy you a quart.
