I have oral hsv1, if my partner gives me oral with hsv1 can she spread it to my genitals? if so how likely is it?

You are not at risk of getting genital herpes from what you described. Get HPV vaccine. Visit this for Safe sex guidelines: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guidelines

HSV I and HSV II are essentially interchangable, and an active HSV I infection in your partner can spread that to your genital area with oral sex.
