    So I have some thin white smoke coming from the sides of my engine

    Im having thin white smoke come up from the sides of this M60 engine, probably from the valve covers. I also have this brown stuff on the side of my coolant hose. Should I be worried about my head gaskets or could it be my PCV and valve cover gaskets? 20201029_131952.jpg20201029_131955.jpg20201029_132017.jpg20201029_132031.jpg

    Good question,

    I have a leak from my valve cover gaskets but they do not leak any white smoke here at all.. it could be from something else
