Sounds like you need to have your block and or heads inspected for cracks or warpage by a competent machinist.

They can then lead you in the direction you need to go repair wise.

Yep, have the machine shop magnaflux the block and heads for cracks. Then have them check the heads and block deck to make sure that the surfaces are true and do not need milled.
