I'm posting another pic of the area... there is also a fairly large area of residue on top of the left rear corner of what I'm guessing is a heat shield to protect the distributor. I've outlined the area in yellow - it's not very visible in the first photo.
I'm afraid I've probably got a similar situation to yours and will have it checked out ... guess I'm hoping for some other possible cause which is probably just wishful thinking. I'll look at the residue and surrounding area in more detail in the morning.
Thanks for your input on this, RS - I worked a lot on my old 99 EMS but haven't done much hands on work on this car .... it helps to get insight from someone who's been there.
I assume if it is a head gasket, the sooner it's taken care of the better
and that the only way to find out for sure is to pull the head.
