Hi there,

This head has been seriously stressed. It will have to be removed and inspected for suitable repairs, the other spark plug tubes and threads should be inspected for damage as well.

Hi there,

This is one of those jobs that you can't really know how it will go and what cost may be involved untill you have the job dismantled in front of you. I am unsure as to your local labour rates and parts as i live in Australia. A change over head may be a quicker and cheaper option in this case.
