You will probably find that the head gasket has taken some time to completely/noticeably burn through. The first time I did a head gasket it was between 3 and 4, just pulled the head, checked for warpage and re-fitted. Unfortunately I think it has done it again. About five weeks back I near cooked it when a heater hose blew and leaked a substantial amount of water out, of course this had to happen during peak hour traffic on the freeway and on a hot day It is only now some five weeks later that I can hear the blown gasket. Have to a comp test yet to confirm I wouldn't jump to conclusions until you (your mechanic) pulls off the head. But it is very unlikely that the block would crack between bores unless the motor has been bored EXCESSIVELY oversize. Cheers. [Report message to a moderator]
