MX6 with 160,000 k is burning oil and fouling the spark plug at #2 cylinder.
Im hoping someone can tell me if the oilway for the head is located by #2?
if so it may just need a head gasket. any thoughts?

Could be a headgasket that has blown or the cylinder head needs a valave
job, the valve stem seals are leaking.
