Default Oil in the coolant reservoir??

So basically i went to a body shop trying to get my latch and hood aligned..anyways one of the workers noticed that there was oil in the plastic container(coolant reservoir) and he said head gaskets are bad.

I dont know much but i know that there isnt supposed to be any oil in there and it was filled up to the full bar and he pumped it out.

So guys let me know what you guys think and if this is a serious problem

Yep, you have leaked head gasket. Engine replaced or spend equal amount of money for the head redone.
