Question Ran hot

2013 jaguar xjl ran hot and melt my gasoline and I had the gasoline replaced but now water is leaking from somewhere underneath but could my head be cracked? And where’s the water coming from?

I'm not sure what 'melt my gasoline and I had the gasoline replaced' means.

If the engine has been overheated, most likely the head gasket(s) failed. The AJ133/AJ126 don't like to be overheated.

With the engine cold, perform a cooling system pressure test to determine the source of the leak(s).
