do a search, youll find dozens of topics on this.
generally a seal on its way out will leak into the cooling system overpressurizing it and forcing fluid out onto the ground. a seal that is completely gone out generally leaks internally and externally, leaking coolant into the engine resulting in flooding and if you do manage to get it started it is likely to overheat quickly.

Failure usually means an external leak that dribbles down from the manifold, or pools near the injectors. In rare cases, it will leak internally, under which circumstances the engine will behave as if it has a failed housing o-ring.
