I believe I have found my cooling issue. A few days ago, I found a milky substance on my pcv valve. After closer inspection, I found that my entire block was consumed with a chocolate milkshake substance. When I pulled my lower intake gaskets to find the point of coolant/oil mixing, I found that on one of the gaskets had condensation, not only around the coolant port, but also surrounding the adjacent intake port as well. I hoping that this is the ONLY problem causing my cooling issue, and my new head gaskets are still in good shape.

I was informed that I can run a 5-minute engine cleaner that will flush everything out of my block. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what else I could do in order to remove the wonderful milkshake from my block? I am trying to avoid pulling the block, unless all else fails.
