A remembered quote from Satch Carlson, who many years ago declined to speak at the MG of America conference because they refused to pay his expenses:

"I can understand why they didn't have the money. They had spent it all on Castrol R, which looks and smells lovely on the floor of the garage, where it ends up after 20 minutes in the typical British engine."

Having worked on many an offering from Morris Garages in my mechanic days, I can only add to your comments thusly: You wouldn't be able to close the head anyway, because it would be rusted in place.
