No need to worry about putting the gskt on the head or on the housing, it's like which piece of bread should the ham go on, top or bottom slice.

If there is a slight leak, no need to have it towed, just driive it and the tiny seepage will not destroy the engine.
Too much worrying!

My guess is if you remove the neck and sandblast it, then hold your hand over one end and go out into the sunlight you'll look inside and see a tiny speck of light where the hole is. done it numerous times.

NO sandblaster handy, just do as above anyway.

Locktite for what, the bolts are not going to walk out on their own. This car was built before Locktite was invented. There is a torque spec on the bolts, if it still leaks after that much torque your problem is elsewhere
