i would say it's a bit more serious than a head gasket. water can enter the cylinders causing the engine to lock hydraulically, but this usually clears over time and the engine will eventually turn over at least.if it is locked, and you have manged to get the engine to turn by tow starting then be prepared for a big repair bill...
