Default anyone done valve seals on 1.3 liter / 4 cyl Geo Metro?

we got this for my wife's nephew, and it smokes like crazy.

only has 80k miles on it.

the guy was running Synthetic oil in it, and i think if i went back to Dino, it might smoke less.

but truth is, i hate to take someone a free car that smokes this bad, when I prolly have the ability to fix it pretty cheap.

where if he took it to a shop, they would kill him on labor costs.

I was going to leave it alone, but it had a squealing from the waterpump, and to do the water pump, you have to take off the timing belt...and while you are there, you might as well.......
