You could run into several problems with this, if its overheated to many times your oil will have gone sludgy and to thick to be of any use so your gonna have alot of things to inspect.
Personally, i think if you have your mind set on doing the gasket and your not to sure what your doing, bring your car to a local garage and you will 99% of the time be able to rent floor space in the garage, should be cheap enough aswel if you ring around.
I know your not looking for floor space, what comes with it though is the guidance of a mechanic and hel be a hell of alot better than any walkthrough.

To answer you question though, no, i dont no of any out there.
