Time for a new engine.

Wow had no idea u had to seal threads on head bolts.. Never have come across that. I would say the block deck is warped or cracked if the head has been surfaced and passed a magnuflux/pressure test.

Only 1 of the headbolts... Goes through a water jacket on the front drivers side.
 
I don't believe the sealant really matters? I had one pulled apart that didn't have any sealant on it and it never caused me any problems. Maybe I was lucky.
