What were the syptoms before you took the head off?

What does the bottom of the head look like?

From those pics, I would say look at the cylinder walls closely for vertical scratches, and see if the crosshatching pattern is still visable in any of them.

I would also suspect that the head gasket was bad between the #5 & 6 cylinders from the clean spot between those cylinders, but the #6 piston still has carbon build up, so no coolant was getting in there.

But those pics are pretty crappy to be honest.

Ray.
