Only 1 solution but it means fitting a new head gasket and bolts and redoing the liquid gasket which should be used to seal up between the camshaft housing and the head.

i was under the impression that there was no gasket between cam and head , just head and block .....anyone?

You're right rysmee. Unfortunately in order to separate the cam housing from the head to re-do the liquid gasket, you also have to take the head bolts out. Unfortunately u then need to redo the head gasket as well which is a pain and makes it into a much bigger job than it should be.
