Do you not think it’s worrying that it was only for you doing a it’s 6 weekly that the problem was noticed how did the driver/drivers not think a black header tank was abit odd and report it to you on there daily checks…. And you ya cheeky pup giving out about the scanjos still 😜 what’s the mileage on aoj now and she’s still tipping away like a small dumper 😜😜😉

I’m not in favour of stretch bolts,the problem here could be they have stretched and allowed compression to seep past the head gasket into the water jacket but at that sort of mileage anything can happen,I think I would have removed the injectors and tested the cylinder compression before stripping the cylinder head off to see if any of the cylinder pressures were low which would have given a good indication of where the problem was before dismantling, it could be that the head has a hair line crack in it,if not rebuilding it without finding the fault could lead to it failing again and then the Blame Game starts as to who’s fault it is when it needs further work and who’s paying for it,been caught like this before in the past.
