the hole was a dead end hole you drilled all the way thru and into the water jacket. depending on the model of head you just made sure you get to buy another and replace the one you drilled.
Next time go to a mechanic that knows what they are doing.

Can coolant leak from the valve cover?
No, if there is coolant in your valve cover it'll be mixed with oil. You blew your head gasket, possibly warped or cracked your head. It may look like coolant is leaking from your valve cover but it's your intake gasket leaking.
Is it the valve cover gasket or the head gasket that keep antifreeze out of the oil?
The head gasket seals the head to the engine block. Coolant and oil flow through the head. The gasket prevents then from mixing together. The valve cover gasket only prevents oil from splashing onto the engine and exposing the valve train and moving parts to the outside of the engine. No coolant makes contact with the valve cover gasket.

NO. The valve cover gasket seals the valve cover from leaks. The valve cover covers the valve train and it's components and it bolted to the top of the head. These components sit atop the head. The head is bolted directly to the engine block with another gasket. Water and oil flow through the head.
