is this normal? also had little steam or smoke or oil vapor coming out the valve cover...But i didnt see any white smoke out the exhaust...is this normal? The oil is the yellow color its not brown milky its the normal color i believe. I just want to make sure its not a leak.. The engine temp stayed at 190.. These are new heads and gaskets and I did not re torque the heads after cam break in and the head bolts are used
 
I had thought I had a leak in my dodge shadow when it overheated in the summer. I had bubbles in the oil althought it didnt get too hot. It was similar to your situation because it had no other signs like smoke etc. the bubbles just kinda went away after i drove it a bit. Idk what the deal was but i as in panic mode and it turned out ok.
 
i have lucas oil stabilizer so i think thats the cause of my bubbles
