These engines use MLS head gaskets. Don't even consider using a sealant. If you have intermix, it's not a blown head gasket- the gaskets are stronger than M96 heads. We've never ever seen a head gasket fail on these engines.

You have a cracked head or cylinder. You may beat your head against the wall trying to figure it out and waste a lot of time.
