Hi
If its the V6 petrol engine then a Rover 75 manual should give you all the info on the engine as it is basically the same 2.5 v6 engine

both a CD Sedona repair manual & a rover/sedona gasket kit are available online at ebay.

The gasket kit works ok, a few minor differences around the air manifold chamber ends.
The CD is good enough, did my rebuild.

Just check the heights of your liners, if too different, stay clear of the new multilayer steel gasket, stick with the composite laminated one, The ebay store "the gasket shops also sells other bits & pieces like head bolts & tappits.
