At 300K miles, and it was my Jeep, I'd yank the whole engine and build it.

Oil in coolant Eh, not coolant in oil? I'd probably start with a wet/dry compression test. It's nice to know those numbers before you start for allot of reasons. One being you might change your mind!

I'd hit the manifold bolts/studs, and the header flange bolts/nuts with PB or something days ahead.......
