John, I am curious, What further inspection was done to rule out the front cover, as this is a frequent finding in the M103's (most of them do it). I am always open to learning new ways to figure things out. How did the tech make the diagnosis of head gasket? Thanks

No matter what you fix, there will always be something else to fix..
"Warranty" is just another way of postponing the inevitable.
