Oil Leaking Heavily

Just brought my car for 5K service to Putman Lexus. After 20 minutes, service advisor called in and told me that the car is leaking oil from head gasket and they can not figure out what cause the problem. Dealer does not have parts for replacement right now and the car is sitting there since Friday. I am really concerned with this problem now.

i would think that if a head gasket went you would be leaking more than just oil, probably coolant, and it could be mixing with the oil. Surprised that its just oil
