This is best asked in the FE engine fourm or the Engine Re-building forum.

It has nothing to do with a 73-79 truck which is what this forum is for

There's one potential issue. There is an oil passage that goes up to the rockers that sometimes cracks. This will let oil seep into the coolant. If there was oil in the coolant this may be the cause.

Other than that, just the usual stuff you would look for on any used block.
