no you don't but if the sealer does work it is a band-aid at best it won't work long

The only way I have fixed blown head gaskets is with a new head gasket. No sealants will work. And yes the oil has to be changed as the coolant will be in there as well.

Yes, you wouldn't want the sealant mixing with the oil. If so it could be a sticky mess in and out of your block.

If you have a blown head gasket, then you probably have water in your oil. Yes, replace it!

Not really, but after you are finished with the repair, then I would change the oil and filter, and drain and flush and refill the coolant, to be sure they didn't mix with each other while you were working on it.

No....this type of sealer is for the cooling system. If it doesn't work...you will need a new gasket. If you are getting compression into your cooling system...this won't fix it. Good luck.
