Default Re: Elusive Block Crack?

The symptoms you describe aren't alarming to me, but I understand wanting to get things right/perfect. Unless you're boiling over, losing coolant, or leaving behind clouds of vapor I'd say things are generally alright.

Do you have a heater core connected to the right bank of the engine? If you do, I think it's fairly normal for temps on the right to be a bit cooler than the driver's side. As far as moisture in the exhaust pipes, you'd be surprised how much condensate accumulates in your pipes and mufflers (dependent on weather). Sometimes I have to take a highway run to heat the pipes enough to steam off the water.
