Easiest way to tell which head gasket?
Got water in my oil, and I want to do as little work as possible. Also, is there a recommended step by step instuction manual on this out there? Thanks.

Sorry. I've found leakdown test info on the internet. If the hub has not been disturbed you can gauge cylinder by cylinder TDC that way.
