Tweeter, lets see if I've got this right, ok? You're finding antifreeze around the rear of a cylinder head, right? Maybe on or around the deck (where the head meets the block), right so far?

You say that it's overheating, right? You also say that antifreeze is going out the tailpipe, right again?

If you only had a leaking intake manifold gasket and antifreeze was being sucked into the cylinders and blown out the tailpipe, it aint gonna "overheat" from that, not unless is running lean (hot) from a vacuum leak as well. Yeah, it would send moist (white watered down) exhaust out the tailpipe.

But since you said is overheating, and blowing out the tailpipe, it's obviously getting into your cylinders - and that's typical of a head gasket. Been there, done that more than once.

On your last post, someone took a shot at some of the replies and "imaginary" problems or solutions, but then offered no solution or suggestion - only a cheap shot. It's been years and I don't remember the specs off the top of my head, and admit to being rusty, but other than torque specs, I could take that motor apart and put it together in my sleep, and probably have more than once. Now let's see if that other guy stands up and offers a solution.
