Looks like you need to replace the gasket, just like shoe says, it's going to happen sooner or later !

They can go 200k or more with only minor leaking but usually they give out earlier. If you can live with a small drip it could go quite a while longer.

Its a good size leak the main problem the drip is hitting the exhaust and the smell is to much to take. Going to have it done the head gaskets Dont know what is a fair price. Thank you for your help
