Yes u could have detonation and no signs. But that be so little couldnt imagine it cracking a ringland.
Maybe ur down a cylinder due to just a blown head....run a leakdown test and ull get ur answer.

I’ve since replaced the head gasket and it is no longer leaking. I also forgot to note there is blue smoke at idle now, so I figure it’s most likely a ringland failure or at least substantial wear. The motor had 280k so it’s to be expected
