Default dumb question, how do you know if you cracked your block?

How would you know if you cracked your block? Would your motor not run right? Would you have air leaking out? Coolant? What?

Oil in the water; water in the oil; compression in the coolant system; loss of compression in one or two cylinders...many possibilities, it all depends on where the crack occurs.

I don't think my block is cracked or anything, just curious how you would tell if it occurred.
