Earlier in the life of this thread I was wondering if you used Coppercoat that you mentioned months ago on the composite gasket.That's why I like spray Coppercoat. It seals well but releases when disassembled. I've used it for years on all types of gaskets including head gaskets.
I have a 15 year old can of Coppercoat on the shelf I used on a Toyota head. It does work well, and is about 900% easier to work with than Pliobond is. I thought about using it on my last drop down of the Norton head, but did something silly and used a 49 year old can of brush on aluminum paint like I did in the olden days. So far so good, but I haven't tried passing anybody going uphill yet with the current engine configuration. Passing cars in the mountains is what caused my base gasket to weep a little on my previous higher CR incarnation of the Norton engine. Good engine test passing long lines of cars.
Anywho, enough of my hog wash in the Commando forum. I wish you the best of luck with the whatever the oil pressure situation ends up being.
