You can add to your very good analysis that when having a little leak on a rocker covers on the vw , it would drip on the exhaust bringing smell and fumes inside the cabin , where on the 2cv exhaust is by the top driving to a clean heating system.
The vw rocker cover cork gasket gets easily sucked in leeding in a major leak if not changing the kork gasket at evry oil change , why , because there is nothing holding the gasket in position.
Even torked to its 300 newton meter value the flywheel single center main bolt would come undone if not using locking thread compound.
When the thermostat would fail , it would close the shaters leeding to overheating , to avoid this , remove the thermostat and block the shaters permanently in open position.
Also , do not use ngk plugs because they do not hold well temperature , use Bosh or Champion spark plugs because an air cooled engine can reach up to 250°c température and cheap plugs will put you in trouble.
On vw air cooled , noisy tapets needs to be often adjusted where on 2cv this problem do not occur.
Vw 1300 air cooled goes ok .
1500 engine is also quiet ok.
1700 engine overheat going up the hill.
2000 engine is a desaster in overheating.
I worked for a specialised garage in vw air cooled in uk.
Panhard air cooled and Citroën air cooled , what a class.
