"""2. Inside the cylinders� exhaust outlets again, I
noticed some type of a rod (see:
http://www.esu.edu/~gstylia/vw/Cyl3qa.htm ). What
would those be, exposed to such a high frying heat?
One of them looked like it was partially melted. I
could be wrong. I�ll check tomorrow.""""

That is a EX valve guide... yes, it does get very hot, but that is normal!
