Like mightymouse said, but if you have the head off then take it to the shop. Better safe than sorry, and I would also change out the timing chain just to be on the safe side. And welcome to Yotatech

It doesnt matter if that caused it or not now that you have the head off?? Get the head checked and go back together with new gaskets.

after reading your post, i think it's definitely a good idea to get your head checked
