Default Suspected head gasket fail

Thought I’d start a new head gasket thread,, 69500 miles so about usual mileage. started to notice motor feeling a little lumpy light burbling I can best describe, also not quite as crispy,, so tonight plugs out, fuel pump fuse out, my cheap leak down tester was knackered,,so in with new compression tester ,number 1 cylinder 110psi, Number 2 110 psi,, 3-4-5-6 cylinders bang on 150psi,, Didn’t do the tee spoon full of oil thing and confuse results ,, so possibly would be higher readings, but I think I can be sure failing between 1and 2,, Ps all the plugs looked nice no oil,no build up carbon, or running lean, all looking good,, if I get time this weekend I might start to stripdown of motor and try to take some decent pictures to post for reference, .. “””Any thoughts views ideas welcome chaps,,
