I R&R'd the head on my SDL with NO prior major engine
disassembly/assembly experience and just the MB manual. It's not that
tough if you are thorough and follow directions well.

So is that gasket pretty straightforward to replace? Is getting the
head off fairly easy? Then replacing gasket and putting head back
on? I guess you would need to remove the chain and intake/exhaust
then some other stuff, get the bolts off, then redo? Probably check
the round on the cylinders while the head is off to see if it is
starting to go bad? While head is off, replace rods?
