When the head is off I would use a block off plate bolted to each cylinder and do a leak down test of just the piston rings.
I would hate to do a full top end job just to discover when everything is bolted back up that one or more piston rings are broken or seized in the grooves.
Not all mechanics have those block off plates though.
I bought mine from Assenmacher tools but someone lately said that they stopped carrying them. They used to be around $100.00-150.00 each and it is three different sizes depending on what type of engine you are working on.
