Timing Cover cracked
Ok i have a cracked timing cover. Im about 70 percent sure. a while back my motor poped the radiator and over heated. then ive had a steady leak that keeps ending up in my oil pan. I used a stop leak to patch it at the moment. and now that i have a starting problem fix. Im willing to fix this now.
What should I all get and replace. when doing this?
And if anyone have a extra timing cover , Get with me.

If you are going to do it that way, then you will have to do the following:
Shut it down and pull it part. +1 on timing set, new water pump, tstat, whatever else is not ne in that area. Driving it ad kknowingly allowing oil and coolant to mix is not smart. You are only making things much worse for yourself.
How did you inspect the heads?

That's better! The way I was reading it appeared that you were driving it.
What about the heads? You stated that you have checked them. How did you do this?
Also, check HERE.
May want to get a radiator tester (the one you pressure up) and see if you can locate where this is coming from.

Yep, I did not specify year when I pulled that up, so make sure you get the correct one if you order. I don't know if it is actually any different or not.
Sometimes the timing cover will leak at the water passage due to not being bolted tight enough. May want to pull Wp and then timing cover to check it. It should not crack for no reason, as there is not extreme pressure or force on these things.
