a cracked head gasket would not change the sound of the exhaust. it may cause the engine to idle slightly rough and cause overheating of motor though. i would not suggest using a repair-in-a-tube type product on a faulty head gasket. they usually make a bigger mess ..

If its the headgasket that's blown you'll be overheating-Get it block and pressure tested.
