Engine out

Finally got the engine out and this obviously made it easier to inspect the damage and general state of things.
Again as mentioned there is heavy corrosion on the alloy and 1 problem which is a bit serious looking, there seems to have been oil/water leakage somewhere in the engine. What looks like emulsification can be seen at the cylinder head on the pic below.



The engine type is the Rotax 122 model.



There also seems to have been a leak at the powervalve area highlighted in red. I'm wondering is this the source of all the goo ?
