Have a Z737 with a 23 hp Kawa engine that has a right side head gasket leak. Anyone had this and got some insight into cause and fix/prevention?

The fix is to replace it.

Prevention is keeping the engine clean so it cools properly
checking the valve lash
keeping the carb clean so the float shuts the fuel off.
