Well, that looks like pseudo code, that is not even the right syntax.
And of course namespace declarations and context for the XSLT are
missing. Therefore it is not possible to tell where your attempt failed.

I also haven't quite understood whether you just want/need to check for
the pure existence of that sf:RelatedCases_GCC__c element or whether the
numbers listed in there need to be checked against one or some of the
other elements.

If you only want to check there is such an element then e.g.

 B  <xsl:if test="/records/sf:RelatedCases_GCC__c">

should do, assuming you bind the right namespace to the prefix "sf" and use

 B B  xpath-default-namespace="urn:enterprise.soap.sforce.com"

in the XSLT to ensure the /records part of the path selects the records
element in that namespace.
