It's a bit off topic but I think the answers will come in handy.

My mother drives a Opel Corsa 1.4L 8v.
Now I serviced it this week and noticed it poores out oil underneath the cilinder head.

Compression is OK but I can see oil comming out.

So I'm gonna place a new headgasket.
As the engine never ran to hot: Do I have to skim the head or can I just bolt it on with the new gasket?
