Default Mondeo engine problems

My dad has an old mondeo that has the following problem.

No compression in cyl 2 & 3

Its a 97/98 mondeo, and has a zetec rkb engine
The garage wants to sell him a replacement engine, but he's not sure that's the real problem.

Any idea's?

Sounds like the head gasket has failed between those two cylinders.
