    I was told on here that my lim gasket in my 1995 se 3100 was bad because of coolant in the oil do these gaskets look like the would leak

    When you compare new to old..you'd come to that conclusion as well. Then add in that the most common repair to a 3100 is intake gaskets..and you will be sure.
