Motor?
Headers or Logs?
How much water is in the oil? Notice moisture under valve covers or is the oil turning into a milkshake?

Did you check the head bolts? Inside the valve cover!

I'm guessing this is a Ford? Can you try to rig a cooling system pressure tester to check the cooling system, timing cover and other passages. If you can't pressurize the system it may be hard to find.
-
Yes its a ford.. I don't have a cooling system pressure tester... and no I dindnt check the head bolts under the valve cover... motor was gone threw 2 years ago and about 2 months ago I did the leak down on the motor and compression tested the heads everything thing was good

It started leaking water and oil at hi rpm from the front bridge of the motor right where the intake manifold meats the head my buddy that was back there said it was squirting out that's why I changed the manifold gasket buuuuut still milky

Hate to say it but it could still be the intake gaskets might not have gotten a good seal and it blew again under high rpm. Hope u get it figured out bud.

No oil cooler ..the oil on the dipstick looks good its when I pull the breather off the valve cover it looks milky... the combustion is so hot with the cold water running next to it causes condensation in the valve covers it sounds right
