oil & coolant leak. need help!

a while ago i noticed an oil leak coming from where the block meets the head, my friend told me head gasket and i got nervous because its not worth it to replace it on this car. yesterday the coolant light started coming on during turns and heavy accelerations and i added more coolant

today i noticed coolant leaking from the same spot the oil was coming from, im wondering if this is indeed the head gasket, it was sealed for a coolant leak a few months ago.. i hope this is sealable..

anyone know anything?

last time when they sealed a small leak they estimated $1800 at a shop to replace it, so that is expensive

its a 96 cavi with 124k miles, ive put alot into it with repairs and a real nice stereo system but i dunno, 2k isnt worth it, im gonna take out the stereo system and junk it probably... disappointing, my first car falls to shit.
