Yay.
I haven't gotten it fully reassembled yet, but its a good way there. I got it far enough to try and start it up (wasn't going to reassemble everything if there were still any leaks), it fires up every time but it doesn't say running. Not sure what is going on quite yet.

That's a lot of work to sort out a simple problem. Oh well, should be good now, right?
The guy that rebuilt my head removed the seal too. But, it was overdue to be replaced anyways. At least he told me he did so.
