Hi and welcome FoothillFord, congrats on getting a pretty neat truck!
Not positive but I suspect the valve seals more, since you`ve found the right forums you`ll have the correct answer soon I hope.
In the mean time drop into your local NC chapter to see what`s up in there and meet some fine folks: North Carolina Chapter - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums and be sure to fill in the location field in your profile soon.
