How much should a repair of a leaking or blown head gasket cost? Located in Carlsbad,CA for the vehicle listed above.

There is a visual leak from where the cylinder head meets the block. Block test performed shows a loss of exhaust gases somewhere that it connects to oil.

Hello,

I have included the information that you requested in the diagrams down below. To get the final labor price, times the labor time by the hourly shop rate from the shop that will be doing the repairs. I hope that this helps.

Thanks,
Alex
