This 335K mile engine is a good candidate for a rebuild. If it aint cracked now likely it never will. :thumbsup:
 
Throw some of that Block/Head gasket/head/engine sealant......It's worth a shot if it works.

I put GM Coolant Tabs in mine and they are so so....
 
When my head gaskets went, I had the same steam coming from all teh same places. But mine was sucking the coolant into the cylinders not pushing air into the cooling system. I had coolant going into the crank case as well. The gasket went that bad. After all was said and done, and I got the new heads surfaced, the steam from the filler and tube to turbo was gone. Of course I still have some blow by but nothing like that.

I still had issues with my heads leaking due to porosity issues so I use the sodium silicates block repair stuff you put in the cooling system with the glycol. Kind of like the stuff dodge uses to keep their swiss cheese systems sealed up.

Hope it helps,

John
