    Gasket could have been oily due to the gasket material being low quality and not oil resistant.

    My oil always smells a bit of gas because my engine is pure garbage.

    Yeah, should probably change jets or something.. It runs and runs pretty good. Im really holding out until it lets loose to stuff a 4.3 or toyota drive train in it with an automatic OD. Ever since I sucked in those nuts and washers into 1, 3, and 5.. and repaired with parts from a seized engine.. It's on borrowed time.
