Should i fix my 95' infinity J30 oil leak?

[beamer8z8]

I have a 1995 infinity j30. It runs fine at the moment but has an oil leak. Its a rather slow leak. I took it to a mechanic and he said its leaking from the cam seals and some valves(i forget exactly where). The estimated repair is 600$. The car has 171000 miles. My two questions are, Will the leak get worse? and how quickly? Basically how much longer can i expect from the car assuming nothing else major goes wrong? And should i spend the money for the repair or just save up for the new car?
Thanks

Well it really depends on how long you wann akeep the car....I had to have the oil pan gasket repalced in May and it was almost $400 to replace. The part is cheap, but the makers at Infiniti didn't make replacing the gaskets easy to replace...it is very labor intensive........It started out as a minor leak but it did get worse to the point that it was smoking, so I had to eventually have it replaced. I'm happy i did as I was not ready to invest in another car.....I currently have 166,00 miles on it....
