Another possibility is the main cam seal behind the distributor.

Campeck, why don't you just order the whole headgasket seal set, which comes with the cam seals, and all!?
Might as well do them all, to be safe at this point.

Anyone know how many teeth a belt could slip before you bashed the valves? I suppose I could figure it out with a diagram, but I'm lazy and just wondering if anyone happens to know for satisfaction of my own curiousity.
