I don't think Toyota would have gone to the expense of replacing his head gasket if it truly wasn't THAT.

Hershey, on the last 2 pics you posted: are these pictures looking from the top of the engine or from underneath? Is it underneath that large black plastic piece that says VVT-I? Sorry, but since I don't work on my car myself, the pictures are so large it's kind of hard to figure out where it's at.

And I'm blonde and female.
