Measure the deepest point on it and measure how much room you have left to deck the block there's tabs on the corners or just drop it off at the shop.. my machinist charges 100 bucks for a deck good luck

May be fixable and will likely be a problem if left unchecked. The cylinder head shifts on the block during warm up and cool down cycles. That dent will eventually damage the head gasket...
