Heads pulled with both manifolds attached w/o any problem, no bent valves. Found blown headgasket between cylinders 2 and 3. Will take head to machine shop for milling, and valve stem seals replacement, Mild rust spoting found on upper section of both cylinder, most likely headgasket was blown by previous owner some time ago. But the car did not smoke or overheated when driven.

Also found a repair bill for radiator hoses and coolant replacement dated a year ago. Otherwise the engine looked spotless inside no crud found. Should I be concerned about the rust spots???
