Default 8BA Cracked Head F-1

Feeling bummed out... took out truck yesterday started up sounds awesome after rebuild, no leaks started warming up and noticed it bleeding green from the area in pic about an inch from head bolt and kiddy corner from the the stamped A. Pretty pissed ... didnt leak before rebuild.i know rebuilder pretty well, i also know all he did was boil the heads and i didnt have him magnaflux.Ever seen sucha thing?? My cousin said he has, Big time Flathead guru.The porosity in the casting looks to be eroded Lucky he has another set of heads for me,now i have to tear into this AGAIN!! This truck is nickel and dimeing me!!
