Ideally you'll want to avoid head but you can use it as a last resort. Heat can warp or damage the head and the gasket sealing surface.

I learned about Gibbs on the "Powerblock" on sunday mornings on spike TV. They have all kinds of great products and tips on there. The stuff really is great and I use it all over the house. It is by far the best penetrating oil I've ever used. It works its way into everything!
