probably warped, put in vice and use a flat file to plane it off level.

Engine (350ci ) with chrome thermostat :Is there a replacement part that i can use that does not leak? Also what is used to remove the coolant stain from the engine block? ( ps-im told that OER gm part should not be used with the chrome dress-up
kit that my engine has -is this true? )
