<x-flowed>> Sounds like a burnt valve, if oil didn't help it. 
You don't need another motor, just a valve job if 
that is what it is. <

I checked with my local machine shop (part of my FLAPS)
and they can rebuild a head for roughly $100 or so,
but they need to see the head to confirm pricing.

Looks like I need to do a partial teardown.

Any downsides to only having one head rebuilt?

This will also allow me to check and fix the leak at
the front of the engine.
