It will have to be a 210 number head. A letter head like A87, U67, W53 etc will have a disastrous compression ratio. There are lots of L16s laying around from engine swaps.

If you ran a really long time w/o anti freeze the water pump area on the front cover could have a small hole and once pressure build pumps water in oil. as you loose water motor overheats.

 

is crank case full of water? higher than the dip stick.

 

pull the water pump and ck the from cover see if look like termites went thru it. Tiny holes pitting.

 

 

antifreeze keep from alum cover from cavitating(making holes)
