The truck runs fine and all I just noticed it when I was lookin around under the truck. Maybe CSIPSP will chime in I know he has had a few motors go.

pictures are horrible as far as orientation but it looks as though its just your head gasket.

It's right above the exhaust manifolds on both sides.

ok the heads are the top and the pan is the bottom if im looking at the pics correctly its right BELOW the manifolds witch makes it the head gasket most likely

ya my bad below the manifolds thats my pyro bung in the 4th pic far left.

yea, no problem.. i didnt mean to come off like an ass like the post seems.. id say your just fine. :tu::tu:

Derek0525 06-17-2010 11:11 PM

No I didn't think that at all. I was just about to $hit myself when I looked up and saw what looked like a crack. How hard is it to replace the gasket?

moose99ps 06-17-2010 11:13 PM

why do you want to replace the gasket? if your not loosing coolant, and its running fine then leave it alone.. it looks fine to me.

Derek0525 06-17-2010 11:22 PM

Good point. Thanks for the quick responses I was pricing out motors all day on the internet thinking the block was cracked. Thanks again.
