After mine blew, I had the head reconditioned (new valves, springs etc) and
skimmed.  I used a new (Moss) head gasket and sprayed on that copper stuff.
Put in all back together to the best of my ability (never done anything like
this before).  Unfortunately, I could still see steam in the exhaust.

 

Randall saved my butt again by suggesting Yamabond (found at Yamaha
motorbike shops) on the head gasket.  That must have been 8 years ago and
the ole girl is still running strong.

 

Keep the faith,

 

Adrian
