My symptoms are not oil related. Yes there is seepage but its not bad. My issue is I believe I am getting some coolant in the combustion chamber overnight after running that pushes out at startup. Little bit of white smoke and rough idle then everything is good until the next morning startup. Also losing a small amount of coolant over time. Water pump and bypass valve recently replaced. No visible leaks. The car has passed a chemical block test so it's not bubbling into the expansion tank. The coolant is clean & so is the oil so no cross-contamination. Would I be correct in assuming that a re-torque would not help anyway as the head is most likely warped or the gasket has been compromised?
