[Peugeot-L] 505 TD bad head or gasket....what to do?

i have a 1984 505 TD. not sure of the year of the engine, but it has XD2 s-IV 81 stamped on top of it. the coolant bubbles in the resevor and it puts out a tramendous amount of white smoke when started cold in the morning. with the price of gas i'm now interested in fixing it up. if the head is cracked, how much will a replacement cost. if it just needs to be machined how much will that cost. how much is a gasket set? should i have other work done on it when its torn apart, if so what? it has a new radiator, its leaking brake/clutch fluid but other than that hasn't been driven for a couple of years. the parts are what will cost me most on this rebuild since the mechanic will donate part of his labor. i have the big blue 3 set repair books, will he need other books or special tools? thank you so much for any help and info you have.
