Will post some pics soon. I'm doing most of the project in my basement at home, but for some of the finer engine work I'm using the shop at my job (I do sales at a dealership and the techs are cool as shit about letting me use their extra space).
As for whether they leaked or not, that is part of the great mystery. I was given the project with the simple briefing of "There's a stuck valve. Good luck getting that thing apart. Its not worth my time." Needless to say I did get the engine apart with minimal embarrassment and have been playing detective to find out what the hell was wrong. Guides are good and I'm replacing the seals for good measure, though they seemed good at a glance. The engine was ugly. Dirty as hell. Seats were a little pitted. I cleaned up the exhaust valves and replaced the inlet valves because of some scoring on the shaft that I worried would tear the new seals. Maybe I'll get more clues once I check the shims but so far I can't figure out what was wrong.
