So just got bike running.. After few mins oil was creamy and I just put it together :(

Reused old gasket (not bent) cleaned it, copper spray as I've done many times before..

Couldn't see anywhere too bad except one area the copper was a bit thin..

Could this have happened in the block instead? How could I tell? Certainly hope I don't have to put rings on again.. Nightmare job!

for the price of a gasket i would of used a new one. did you flush the engine out properly when rebuilding?
