Whew! A lot going on for you!
The cruise control is likely your amplifier, that is located under the dash on the drivers side, but I wouldn't worry about that right now, also on your headlamp washer, take the pump out, there should be 2, one for the windscreen one for the headlamps, hook 12 volts to it and see if it works, if not the pump is bad, those going out are common.
Regarding your head gasket, if you have oil in your coolant, that is not a good thing. Is it a lot of oil? Do a search on the forum, there are detailed instructions on replacement. On the inline six it is not that hard, but be sure to take your time and follow the instructions, especailly regarding the timing, and if you have a variable cam, be sure to pay attention to that and it's position. Good luck!
