Getting the cam cover off will be a pain as all the injectors will have to come off first. This isn't a huge Hasse but I won't be able to turn the engine over with the cover off without getting all new seals etc. It's not something I want to be doing unless I'm 100% sure the head needs to come off. I think I'll be better taking the manifold off and eyeballing the valves first to confirm 100% then I can decide whether to fork out for a new engine/head or whether to break the car and try and make some money back.
