I would check the exh cam seal and replace the cam seal if it is leaky, new or not..
Did you use some sealant at each edge of the two front cam bearings? (the pair that secure the cam seals)

Good work se7en 
I actually checked all that stuff this morning and I pulled a :doh!: on both accounts. I somehow managed to FORGET the camshaft oil seal on the exhaust cam and missed the part in the procedures about using sealant under bearing cap #5. Oh well, it's fixed.
The other issued was leaky coolant. Turns out I needed an o-ring on the t-stat housing (the part that you take off to change the t-stat). I couldn't find any references to a gasket or seal needing to be there, so I just found a well-fitting o-ring and it seems to be working.
THE CAR PULLED HERSELF OUT OF THE GARAGE AND DOWN THE STREET TODAY!!!!
Insurance company has already been called and the MVD will get a visit from me tomorrow. Tonight, however, we go for a joyride!!!
