friends we4 is in bad shape.....its got oil and exhaust sound coming out of the passenger valve cover......
valve spring? headgasket?? this is not good....

Headgaskets probably.When mine blew there wasnt any coolant mixing with the oil but you could hear compression coming from within the engine.A compression test should pin point it.Go right for #4 cylinder.Also if you find its is the head gaskets dont do just one side.The other side is probably going also.Heres what mine looked like.

Burned exhaust valve? Weak valve spring? Valve guide might be shot.
