I got a 1973 ford 2000. Getting water in the crank,I got the head off and kerosene in the water jackets of the block. I cant find any leaks did same to the head no leaks.
It started blowing a bit of smoke out the oil cap and it had blown the number 1 head gasket. pulled off and replaced it,then it ran 15 minutes and after warming uo started blowing vapor again from oil cap. COULD my head be warped or is their some weakest link somewhere that goes out in these engines I need to know about.

Is the radiator water disappearing? After new head gasket was it some residual moisture left in block?

That much steam? Smoke? out of the breather might indicate excessive blow by.

I think ford likes to use "O" rings to seal many water jackets you didn't miss one of those on reassembly? ....
