For those interested, in Poland this repair cost me $125. And how much would it cost in the US, for example?
At the same time, they replaced the rubber hose for the engine breather.
AutoSerwis gives me a 2-year warranty for this repair, which is the same as the warranty for the gaskets.
And as for re-tightening the bolts on the valve covers, the mechanic said that in his opinion it can be done, but it would be better after a year.

The cost for my valve cover gaskets and sealing the breather covers was about $58.00.
However, I did it myself. You have a very good and honest mechanic.
