to be honest im not 100% sure a head is needed but from what he has told me im pretty certain he has damage,
basically he had steam out of the exhaust and a missfire on tickover (head gasket) :(
he then proceeded to drive it 12 miles when it started tapping,,, this then stopped then restarted and about 30 seconds later the engine died and had loads of "smoke/steam"  from under the bonnet,
he has tried starting it but it is turning over really fast with total loss of compression (timing belt snapped) or jumped????

i will know for certain soon as im collecting it on the a-frame tomorrow
