Carbon build up in intake manifold

After removing intake and exhaust manifolds, I found a great amount of carbon in the intake manifold. So much so that it flakes off. Would this be a sign that the valves need to be ground??

The fly wheel teeth are half way ground off from visually inspecting with fly wheel with cover removed . Mass amounts of oil are present in and around flywheel and cover..

Thank you for your input. It is freshing to know there is support out there. After my son and I dropped the oil pan, he discovered the rear main leaking and flywheel damage. So we are pulling the engine and doing for rebuild. As anyone done this and if so , while engine out , is there other things I should consider doing...

Gas in engine oil

Need help!! I have a 1940 120, while changing the engine oil I noticed a strong gas smell. The car as been sitting for about 10 yrs and has only ran about once a month ( just engine) for that time.I just recently had time/ money to go through the car to get it road ready. I am new to older cars and don't want to guess what is wrong. Does anyone know of any tests I can do besides compression?
