Head gasket leak and oil leak all at low miles. Must really have bad luck, if this were a vw/Audi I would say normal.

I'm curious how z1 etc is going about rebuilding these blocks with boring and honing aluminum walls. I haven't kept up on my engine building but they usually have a hard coating for wear and if rings leak etc the manufacturer just replaces the piston and rings but no re honing is done (at dealer level). Curious.
