No. Your head gasket or block is likely cracked.
IF that is all that was wrong it will be.
First, head gaskets are not rebuilt. They are replaced and on V6's and V8's they must be replaced in pairs. If properly installed, the engine will be as good as new(that is if everything else with the engine is ok. The only bad thing would be is if some hack did the job and cut corners.

A few things you have to look at- How old is the car? Except for the bad head gasket, does the car operate OK? How many miles are on the car?? These are things you have to decide what you will do.
most cars after having a new head gasket fitted will smoke for a short while (sometimes up to 1500Km) but only a light grey blue smoke. after this distance has been covered look for oil around the head and block. and also alot of bubbling in the radiator coolant is another give away of a failed head gasket. If none of these exist then your head gasket is fine.
IS the head gasket OK ?
the fluid will be leaking from the head
check nozzles and diesel pump
Part? is $65-$80 depending on brand, to have it installed? 8-10hrs, depends on if the head is ok- $1000-$1400 labor.
if its coming from the top of the head then its ok .It's probably just a worn valve cover gasket,but if your sure that its coming from the bottom of head then its a blown head gasket most likely.check to see if there water in your oil.but doubtful though cause with a blown head gasket your most likely to see water leaking at bottom of head not oil.but if it is a blown head gasket then its major and your looking at anwhere from 700 to 1500 bucks in mechanics work depending what kind of car ya got.
