Default 1996 C280 Head Gasket

Currently working on a '96 C280 with a blown head gasket. I am unable to find any head blot torque #'s. Or any specs for that matter! Any info would be appreciated.

I always have good luck with the Google machine. I put a head gasket on a 300E and it seemed simple. The gaskets seem to go out in one particular rear corner of the head. I spent 2 days finding a cam bolt. The head had been taken off by a dealer in NYC and it hadn't been put together very well. The cam bolt had been sheared and left in the journal.
