Yes, that I&T shop manual is a good one. I have mine for the MF Super 90 with Perkins 300 diesel. I'd heard these engines had a weakness for head gaskets and sure enough, a few years ago mine blew between a couple of cylinders. No leakage but it was missing. I got it done mostly by myself but had help with some of the heavier stuff like removing the fuel tank. I had the head into a machine shop to get it planed good and straight and I'd recommend it. It seemed to make the engine better starting ever since I had that done. I've got some video of the job on youtube but it might not apply to your smaller Massey. One extra step I took and it was a bit more work, but run the engine to warm it up when you first have it back together. Then re-torque the head bolts to the recommended setting. I set up a small portable fuel tank for this job because as you probably know, you can't do much work on the top of those engines without having the fuel tank off.
