Head Gasket????

Well i noticed the last day or so that i was getting higher temps than usual , i had to put a bit of water in as well water was goin down next day abit as well. Noticed it has a bit of a miss and a little white smoke out the pipe. Looked at the oil today, it looks to have a bit of water in it...dangit i said. the sparkplug hole had been stripped at sometime or another so i figure i need another head, it already has a sleeve in it. So what i wanted to know was where i can get the best parts and reasonable and any suggestions to my symptoms. This is a 94 Toy 4x4 22RE Auto

Are you sure it wasn't just the water pump leaking/going bad??
