A remanufactured head could run you ~$550. Having the head rebuilt locally would be about the same (here at least).

If the tractor is well used, you might be making some trouble for yourself if you just do the head. If there is any margin left on the valves, you could just try lapping them in and letting it go at that.

The head on my H was cracked between the center two bolt holes, but never leaked. I did not reuse that head when I rebuilt the motor, but I think that a little rtv around the studs and some stop leak would have kept the water on it's own side. If it doesn't work, you will have wasted a head gasket.
