The car sat from 1981 to 1994 and then again from 1994 until now, so who knows what happened.
I'll check the oil pressure when it's running.
As far as the valves being hung open, I had read that could be an issue. On the bench, I reassembled the head/cam cover with the old gasket (same as the new one) and slowly went valve by valve making sure they were full seated/closed on their circle.
