I would have the mechanic make SURE that nothing is going on with the balance chain and sprockets before retorquing the head gasket.
Do a search for balance chain and sprocket on this board. Or even oil pressure.
I wouldn't retorque a head gsaket with that kind of miles and years (48K miles).
With that low mileage on an old car you might have corrosion problems in the cooling system and that the cylinder head gasket is eaten away by it.
If the engine needs a balance chain and timing chain job, the cylinder head needs to come off anyway to do it properly.
A repair like that usually runs around $1500.00 if caught early.
