I spun mine due to oil starvation caused by an unknown oil leak buy it wasn't the headgasket. Satan thinks it was leaking from the cam position sensor and when he took the VC off and used a lot of the sealant it quit leaking there, but it started somewhere else and kept moving all around the car until there is just oil everywhere!

Spun bearing here too. Low oil levels due to head gasket leak.

how do you know you've spun a bearing? I've come close to driving without oil....
