Doing what I consider a baseline+ maintenance which includes the valve cover gasket due to some massive oil leaks and noticed the front section of the cylinder head (where the timing chain and distributor gears are and thought they were rather dry.
My question is, do oil galleries exist in the front section of the cylinder head that feed the timing chain and distributor gear? Seems like this area was dryer than normal after removing the valve cover.
Also, wonder why my back 4 plug tubes and cams are darker than the front? Would like to clean the carbon deposits off distributor gears too, has anybody done that while valve cover is off? I'll post some pics here in a few.
