Evening  all. I have been looking around the car trying to find these leaks. After cleaning the back of the engine up near the exhaust ( it's hot ) lol. There is trace of oil running down to the breather tube from the block.
 The right  side of the exhaust manifold is oiled up which I think the head gasket has gone.
 Also I have a water leak I noticed a wet patch near the front of the car on the right as u look at it . No water in the oil and vise versa.
 Going to strip it down in a weeks time so need to find leaks first well water one .
 No evidence of water on the engine all seems dry.

2.2  Have a look at rear of engine at the half moon Cam gasket for signs of oil leaks

Cam cover gasket leaking,and if the water leak is on the same side as exhaust check thermostat housing and hoses.

Sorry 2.2 . Thermostat housing looks fine no trace of leaking . Could be rocker cover but seems to to high . I shall try and post a pic today
