Unless the head was not torqued correctly at all, that's not
likely the problem.
Checking for 2 automatically gives the opportunity to have 3 checked
as the head needs to come off for 2 anyway.
Another possibility is if the wet sleeves of the engine aren't
at the correct deck height (check factory manual for that).
But, odds are its a head gasket and that, while it isn't a
one hour job, is relatively easy to do yourself.
