i bought a used 454 motor the guy claimed was good after install it smoked blew oil out the headders and had water in the oil, upon tear down i found that a good sized piece of one of the valves was missing, now this motor has th stock pistons in it and hes no ridge at the top of the pistons, so i assume low miles, all pistons ar stamped 10 , 9 , or 8, could the broken valve cause it to blow oil out of the headders, i know gaskets could leak to allow water in the oil
