7/8 is like half a mm off of 23 I think or 24mm. I only used it as it was all I could find in my area and the original was either 24 or 25mm.

If it is a head gasket the leaks won’t get worse. Combustion pressure is pressurizing your crankcase if it is leaking.
Doing a compression test will verify that. You can buy a compression... -
