SOHC question....

My friend has a 4.6 SOHC grand marquis and he thinks that the head might be cracked. Is this a common problem with the SOHC? I personally dont beleive it, but if anybody knows anything....... Oh yeah it has around 66,000 miles. So I am kinda doubting that the head is cracked. Also, Is head warpage a problem with the sohc?

Upon further inspection, I discovered that there is anti freeze around the o-ring seal of the fuel injector. I beleive the head is cracked:shifty:My friend took it to a guy and said that the SOHC heads are known to crack????
