Valve lifter problem? (Oil pressure? Journals? Oil pump?)

I suppose it's that cork seal between the cylinders and the gasket.

To make sure: It's about 30 cm x 12 cm (12inc x 4.5 inc), about 1 mm thick (or 2), has three big holes for cylinders, and many smaller holes for other channels, oil as a one (or more). I know what it is called in Finnish, but that doesn't help you that much. I suppose direct conversion from the Finnish word would become "Gasket insulator".

"Cylinder head gasket" or simply "head gasket" in American English :-)

That sounds like a head gasket. It's the thing that sits between the cylinder head and the engine block and seals the combustion gasses, coolant, oil.

like this:

The HEAD gasket was "clogged"????????

Now THATS different. --
