are you sure your head gasket is leaking or your valve cover gasket?

it is probably the valve cover gasket. I had someone replace mine it was about 200. Give or take.. I would try to do it yourself and save the money.

I do not know much about car, but sometimes I could see oil around the area were the spark plugs are.

is it leaking above the spark plugs, or near the bottom? if its above all you gotta do is take a socket take the bolts out form the top, theres two that are on the side where the cam cover is, but you gotta drain your oil.. and get a gasket, the gasket just pops in,.. and thers no need for a tourqe wrinch.. put them in tight.
