One more question folks:

Any thouights on the purpose of this feature on the cylinder head around the studs- looks like its been purposfully done but not particularly consistant with the recess nearest the camera being twice a s deep as the ones at the far side.
Once again your experience and advise very welcome.
Cheers

Hello, LF.

These marks around the studs are traces of a bad job done.
Seems like some dpo tightened the head down to close
a tight camchain and used some sharp-edged tubes as
distances-holders without washers.

Fuckwit DPO used sockets as spacers to tighten down the head as Ernsto has suggested...

Yes, you could say it was done on purpose. ::)  Problem is, it will reduce/interrupt oil flow to the rockers in no small degree.  You will need to fill the grooves up in some way or another.

OK thanks for that- just needed to make sure there wasn't something a little more subtle going on.
Best find myself a good ally welder then!
