If your HeadGasket is on it's way out, you should see coolant building up in the cylinder(s). Was any timing components changed recently? I would say it's highly unlikely that all 3 cylinders on that one bank would have worn rigs for example. Just start with the basic inspections, post results, and we'll go from there.
