I'm currently in the middle of a head gasket replacement, and I think my head might be warped.

Always get the head resurfaced always better to be safe then sorry. Count your blessings at least you have the 22r compared to 3.0 haha. That is the one time I wish I had a 4 banger.

I don't know what it would cost to replace a headgasket from a shop, but I bet it would be hella expensive. I've never done one myself but I bet if you're confident with your toolery and mechanicking skills that you could do it yourself. And with the infinite wisdom of everyone here and their unstoppable willingness to help, I bet you could get it done without a hitch. That would be my bet.
