I had a similar issue. Found a hairline crack between #2 and #3. Second head ran for about a week and the cam locked up. Whoever had it on whatever before me let it run dry on oil and it scared up the area where the cam normally rides in the oil film. So the third head was actually off a 2.0. Had a little trouble figuring out how to block off the fuel pump port but after that it’s ran like a champ since last July. And a word of advise. Take both timing belts and throw them away and replace both of them and the tensioner and time it. It’s not hard to do. I can do a head gasket from start to finish in under 2 hours now. And that’s retiming it also. Just take your time and don’t be afraid to mess up. Worse it can do is exactly what it’s doing now.
