Its gone!

Here's the story....

When I got my 2000 I30 I sold my 95 Max to my sister with 50K miles on it.

She's had it since them and now has 280K miles. Last week it stalled several times and them anti-freeze started coming out of the air intake. The oil was a white-gray combination of oil and anti-freeze.

Not wanting to put money into it she had it towed to a junk yard where I suspect it will be parted out.

Just wondering....

What "seal" would go to cause this and is it common? Is it something that is worth fixing at 280K miles?
