Well... you *should* remove the head, but if the fire ring isn't distorted
then maybe that's a good plan.  Either way it's going to take some time.
Retorque, and drive it around for 100 miles or so with some Bars-Leak
checking it over and over.  Maybe you'll get lucky, but if you're not, that
time could have been used removing the head and replacing the gaskets.
