I had the print-o-seal gaskets fail on my car around all four water ports. The one finally went so bad that it hydraulically locked the number one cylinder. I now have Cometic gaskets coated with the Permatex Indian Head Gasket Shellac on both sides. My understanding is that the print-o-seal gaskets had a problem with anti-freeze eating them away, even though I switched to water and water wetter at about 2,000 miles (it failed at about 12,000 miles).
