A head gasket won't cost you that much, only about 20 bucks. And I don't know about a write up.

Head gasket can be a pain in the ***, but if you're mechanically inclined at all it shouldn't be too bad.

Leave the intake manifold connected to the head when you pull it off, disconnect the exhaust manifold, remove the valve cover and loosen the head bolts. I'm pretty sure there is a torque order to loosening so you don't warp it but I'm not sure.

Welcome to nico.

I am with the last poster , follow the service manual procedure. pay close attention to chain info and head torque specs those are the most important parts of the job to get right.

In the future please follow these simple instructions when posting.zerothread?id=143819

Additionally read the other sticky at the top of this forum for technical advice and posting guide lines.
