I have a slow coolant and oil leak, more oil than coolant. Is this consistent with a head gasket problem? And if so, what would you estimate the repairs should cost?

It's possible, easy way to check for cracked head or head gasket is to remove radiator cap while engine is cool, then start engine and rev up. If cooling blows out radiator cap opening then there is a problem with head. If not then head is most likely OK.
