Oil leak in engine for 1994 cadillac concourse-- we have an oil leak as a result of the manufacturer not using gaskets for oil pan and separate engine parts.

Head bolts ripped out of the block at a cost of $2,500. The work is not guaranteed because if the inserts did not work cadillac only alloy's one fix if the head bolts rip our again they instruct you to throw the motor out even though it runs well. But they do not sell just the engine block you must buy the entire motor and you must take out the motor our to do the head gaskets with a special jack that must be placed under the car so the motor can be removed from underneath!!!!
