As far as I can tell it's the only next step I can try...and it's an expensive one due to the tools required which I don't have. Did you use the AGA tool to do your stems seals?
I was the same way I kept swearing up and down that it wasn't the valve seals and maybe a air leak or CCV's. Even thought about changing the valve cover to the newer style with the external CCV setup! Ive talked to AGA multiple times as well prior to doing it seeing if there was anything else I could do. I did use the AGA Tool for the seals.
