head gasket question

[mrsmothers]

I have a sbc in my 1950 I had a coolant leak on top of the motor and coolant sat there for a few days. Strange part about the leak my thermostat housing was leaking which put coolant down the front of the motor. For some reason I had coolant all down the side and back of the intake as well.

Any way I drove the truck about a mile ran fine the next day I went to take it out it back fired twice so I came home now my oil is milky. Truck dosent smoke cant tell if I am loosing coolant the oil level is not going up its just milky.


So million dollar question blown head gasket? coolant leaked past valve cover gaskets or blown intake gasket.
