Default HELP! Leaking oil!

Okay, I hadn't changed my oil in about 8,000 miles...I know I know (please forgive me oh Lexus gods). And a few days ago my mom noticed some oil spots in the driveway. I shruged it off thinking it was just from one of our junky cars that parents insist on driving. Soooo I finally go to get the oil changed and the mechanic mentions it....uh oh. He says it looks like the gasket, okay, I'm hit. Somebody please bring me up to speed as to what my problem is and if it's undr warranty or if it's a quick fix at all?! PLEASE HELP! My poor Lexi has seen enough problems, I feel like I'm driving a Land Rover.


Oh, I know for a fact it's leaking, I watched it myself.

P.S. My baby (pig) draink up 9 quarts!!!!!!
