Agree with you . Can't see why if head skimmed and new gasket fitted , it won't cure leak .Unless there is another fault common to that car that I can't think of i.e excessive back pressure etc. , don't see why it won't work . Ask why they said this ? Only other thing I can think of is if engine in general was badly worn / high mileage or had other faults .
