Looking at the header tank it looks more like a bust oil cooler then a head gasket. I was going to strip the engine down and rebuild it just to double check things :)

It's going to need a bit more than polish to keep it red or will go pink again, I'm Luton on the 26th and can show you what you will need to keep it red, I think you came to my house when your Dad picked up a seat from me.
