See attached. If you can feel the gasket sticking out, is that at the angle that matches the head, or the "scoop" of the valley pan? Also look at Wireless Inspection Camera - Great Deals on Wireless Inspection Cameras at Harbor Freight.

It feels like the angle of the head and much lower than I would suspect the valley pan to go. I actually pulled a piece off and it was a similar material as to what I would expect a head gasket...that is fiber sandwiched between metal. Is the valley pan gasket made of a similar material? I wish that diagram was shown fom the back side. I'd love to know there was a freeze plug or something similar in there and how far down the VP goes.
As to rainbows... I promise you will see one every day if you come for a visit IH. ;-)

I saw those (item #4) but I believe they are inside the bellhousing, not where this is leaking from for sure.
Wow, is that what my engine s supposed to look like under all the grease and muck? Very nice! I believe the gasket material/leak is coming from much lower than the VP, although both could be contributing to the gusher. Great idea on the front to back orientation Sav...duh, I should have thought of that!
I'm hoping I can have my neighbor help me tow it home today. Will the brakes be effective (enough for towing) without the engine running? Matt
