    Yeah, the little 'L' shaped retainer was still laying there.

    He put a new seal in when he reinstated the head, didn't want to if it didn't get ate up.

      Ok, you should be good to go if there's no visible leaks.
      If a hammer doesn't fix it you have an electrical problem

          Checked the endplay, only .004" so I'm good there, put some locktite on the bolt and tightened her down. Gonna power wash the greasy valve cover tomorrow. Still need to come up with some timing cover bolts. May have to goto Ace, but I'd rather have stockers, another PAP trip I guess.
