If you have a old spray bottle you can put some soapy water in it, then spray around the head gasket area, especially the area in question, then crank the starter and look for bubbles. Or put the air to it like I said.

Have the head and cylinder mating surfaces been checked to be flat and true?

ok guys thanks for all the input. I don't know what was wrong but I put oil in the spark plug holes and in the head around the cams and she started. two whole years and I finally heard her run again. sounds strong as ever.
