   Got an oil leak on the head and need to get it sorted, timing belt has only done5k so that doesn't need sorting. What would be a fair price for the work?
   
   Cheers.....

   £300 - £500 depending upon the work involved (head skimmed?)

   Cost me £175 just for the gasket as it didn't need skimming or didn't need tenserners and I did the oil and filter myself
