Tricky question...It depends where the gasket has failed..One symtom is steam coming out of the exhaust pipe,,smells like antifreeze..Another ccheck is to remove radiator cap [cool engine]if the level is low top it up,,start the engine watch for bubbles in the antifreeze,, sometimes you can smell exhaust coming out of the rad,,this type of leak will sometimes pressure up the cooling sytem.. If the leak is bad enough it may foul up a spark plug and the engine will run rough..You could check for oil in the antifreeze or vice-versa. Ultimately a leak-down test may be needed.
