Did you do a compression test? If 2 cylinders that are next to one another have low compression numbers, the head gasket is toast.
If the head gasket is indeed bad, quite rare for these cars, a good used 4.6L is plentiful and relatively cheap. There's really no point pulling off the heads. If you do choose to go down this route, try and source a 2001+ which will have the Performance Improved cylinder heads.
