Usually a head gasket will be noticed all the time and not just at one RPM. There is a slight chance that is an issue, but I question it. Before having the repair made, I would get another opinion and have it checked.

OK but do you think I could get it fixed for about 300$ or less?

That is a hard question to answer not knowing the true problem. If it is a head gasket, I would suspect it would be more than that amount.
