Coolant leak after head gasket
Coolant leak after new head gasket, weird. I torque
the studs properly, new gaskets (mopar), heads were rectify in a shop. Not sure what happened and of course I see myself taking this head out, but what to look for? I am attaching a video. Apparently mp4 is not acceptable.

Left head towards the front of the engine, between the block and the head.
Yes, you have to turn the phone side ways to see that's actually going down, but yes that is coolant. As you can see it is between the block and the head.
yes. Unfortunately, I am going to have to take it out. Is it possible for the actual block to be warped? I am hoping that is not the case. Let me ask you a question, the left gasket is it the left looking in from the front of the truck looking back?

If block is warped what is the best way to flatten? I had this happen to me years ago (not on a ram) and had to pull the engine and take to a machine shop.
Yep, that is the ONLY way to correct it. The tolerances are measured in thousandths of an inch, and single digits at that..... But, since the job was just done, it's entirely possible that a bit of leftover gasket material is what is causing the leak.... Surfaces need to be friggin' pristine to seal properly.
