Just rebuilt top half new cam lifters springs heads redone etc... Started up oil is milky. In the middle of troubleshooting just replaced head gaskets again. Any suggestions with valley pan vs intake gaskets? Also going with new head bolts (arp) next tearing down front of motor water pump etc... Just trying to find problem 350 rocket
hello,
Your leak may be from the intake.
In my opinion a composition intake gasket is used with an aluminum intake.
If you still have the cast iron intake the valley pan style should work fine.
I don't like the tin valley pan gasket when used with an aluminum intake, JMO
Also a source for your water leak may be the front timing cover.
Also make sure you torque the head bolts to spec.

I'm going to purchase a new valley pan and and see if that helps also bought new timing gasket set. I'm on the site through my phone tried to attach a pic of the oil ill have to do it when I get on a computer later on.
