Looks like a new Pope has been elected
If you wanted to try a very quick bodge you could put a bottle of K seal in it. If you don't know k seal, it was developed for the Rover K series engine, which has a dirty habit of head gasket failure. In actual fact it's not always gasket failure and more to do with erosion of the head or top of the block. Some say liner slippage is the cause but K seal often does the trick. It's not massively expensive (about £7 a bottle over here) and may just help you get through your inspection without having to do an engine swap.
Best of luck with whatever way you go.
Dave.
