    Is oil leaking from head gasket indicative of a blown head gasket?
    Other things I've noticed: oil in distributor cap, trouble starting after sitting for a few days as well as trouble starting in cold weather.
    Thanks

    Pictures worth a million words but sounds like a seal is weaping in the distributor. Are you sure its leaking from the head gasket? Hard to start may be because of oil in the distibutor.

    I will clean up the block and the excess oil and get on pics today. I cleaned out the oil in the dist cap so there was none on the electrical points.
