Oil ports don't line on on block/head
Hey guys, I'm putting a VVT head onto a VVT block and the rear holes for what I think is the oil drain doesn't line up. Headgasket is on correctly, but it doesn't line up.
The holes on Cylinder 2 and 3 line up, but 1 and 4 do not.
Is this by design, perhaps to restrict oil flow out of the head? Or is there a problem?

If you have a coolant reroute, consider using a 1999-2000 head gasket. I think that is still the preferred approach.
If you don’t have a reroute, you should; and if your engine is out, now is the best time to do it.
