2002 land rover discovery se v8 left cylinder bank caked in coolant on the back and side of the cylinder head. All signs are looking like its a head gasket but just want everyones input. Engine oil although dirty free of water or coolant going through a gallon of coolant every 2 weeks

If it's on the backside of the head, then it probably is a head gasket or crack in the block or head.

Instead of guessing, use a pressure tester to pressurize the system and then look for the leak.
