6.0 powerstroke headgaskets

What are some signs of headgaskets going and ways to check to see if there out. Truck has 206,669 miles on it yesterday morning ran fine had plenty of power after work going to my other job and felt like it had no power got to my other job and coolant was coming out of the degas bottle and upper rad hose was pretty firm truck has a blocked off egr cooler. Took the cap off this morning and the coolant in the reservoir didn’t come up but there was pressure in the degas bottle checked oil and it was. No oil in the coolant, oil looks fine, only thing I can think off is do a service on it and see what the oil looks like? Truck has 90 over injectors, stage 1 turbo, s&b intake if that helps at all.

Sounds like blown head gaskets. 6.0’s don’t mix oil and coolant with blown head gaskets. They overpressure the cooling system and overflow the bottle.
