have you done a leakdown test? if it passes that, then a HG might be gone between an oil and water jacket. That's what happened with me.

My old leaky exhaust passed the pressure test, but leaked like a sieve when heated up.

But.... I'll take intake manifold gasket for 200, Alex

Just went thru this with my boat.Leak down test indicated a blown head gasket on port side.Since the intake was off told the shop to replace both gaskets.

Also,in my case but not yours, the exhaust riser gasket on starbord side was leaking too.Did you pull the plugs to see if their wet?
