You need to find out if the head needs to be shaved if it got hot.  Usually
head gaskets just don't "go bad" and it means there is something else going
on.

So it may be that much if the head has to be machined...

On the topic of A2 VWs, can anyone tell me how hard it is to put in a new
head gasket?  I was quoted +-$600 and decided that's a bit much for a very
small oil leak.
