Head gasket leak? 200 1988

Hello all,

I have a 1988 240 with 203,000 miles on it and where the head meets the block, oil is leaking. It is doing this only on one side of the engine(the intake manidold side) Would it be okay to tighten the head bolts down a touch or just go for a new head gasket?

Thanks for any responses

Adrian
