Good morning Gentlemen,
I have a Toro Z5000 powered with a Kohler SV610 that was built in 2007. It has approximately 250 Hrs of service. I've been using Mobil 1 Synthetic 10W-30 since break in.
Recently it has developed an oil leak dripping onto the muffler. I believe it may just be a blown head gasket. But I'm not 100% sure. The oil is definitely leaking out from where the head meets the engine block. I guess it could also be a warped head too ?
Unfortunately I believe this occurred because I added SeaFoam to the fuel under the advice of a friend as the problem developed immediately afterwards.
I have all the tools necessary to repair this myself. Any advice or help you could lend would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

On Edit: I've already downloaded the manual from the Kohler site.
