Head Problem

Had radiator fluid in my 5th and 6th piston. Removed head and dried the block, had head shaved and cleaned. Replaced head and mani gasket, flushed fluids. Still smokes ALOT, and oil gets shot out pipes. When I ran the motor with the vavle cover off noticed the there was no oil being put to the valves. does the oil go threw the push rods? So question is what do i do now!?

Yes oil should be coming up thru the pushrods and onto the rockers.

How many miles are on the motor? Sounds like it might be time for a rebuild.
