There are 2 of them. They are sandwiched between the heads and the engine block. In order to replace them the intake manifold and heads must be removed and exhaust manifold disconnected. Always replace both of them on a V6.
under the head !!
how do you replace head lights on my 1999 oldsmobile alero?

Any parts store can provide you with the correct gasket.
TO SEE IF IT IS YOUR HEAD GASKET DO A PRESSURE CHECK. TAKE TO A RADIATOR SHOP AND THEY CAN CHECK IT FOR YOU NO CHARGE......AND IF IS YOUR HEAD GASKET THE PARTS ARE CHEAP BUT ITS THE LABOR THAT WILL COST YOU......(6HR JOB). I HAD IT DONE......
The head gasket is sandwiched between the head and the engine block.
It is either an intake gasket, or head gasket most likely...bring it in to a mechanic.
$2200 is what I spent but it was head gasket and intake gaskets.
To replace the head gasket on a 1994 Oldsmobile Cutlass 3.4L, everything on the top of the motor needs to be removed. The battery should be unhooked first, then the valve covers, then the head itself. Replace the new gasket after cleaning the old gunk off from the first gasket. It is a good idea to take a picture before, during, and after, to make sure everything is hooked up like it should be. One note, the valve cover gasket will also have to be replaced after removal.
Blown head gasket, cracked head, or cracked block.

The head gasket seals between the head and block. The head gasket is inside the engine, up high.
