Finally got the head off-with the help of another (local) Healey nut.Yes the
gasket was indeed blown between 3 and 4. A strip 7/16 "wide was missing at the
narrowest point -as many of you suspected. Had the head magnifluxed and
"blacklighted" (?) I had never heard of blacklighting, but what the hey. Lost
a couple of more small parts(washers-no tools-but haven't seen the cap nut
since the first day. I have appreciated your direction /comments.
