No one can give you an answer until the valve covers are removed & the valve stems examined. There could be damage to the valve seats, etc.

your best bet would be to call a well know engine rebuild shop in your area and get a quote for the repair if you have no clue on how to fix it yourself let a shop do it they will replace all thee old parts that are damaged or not with new parts this is your best option
