what i am wondering is if he got the head torque down sequence right. if not that could be your cause, or a misaligned gasket or simply one bolt that isnt torqued down correctly or at the worst maybe the previous owner of the motor overheated it and warped it.
your cheapest and easiest option is gonna be to check to see if the head bolts are torqued to spec. if not then mor eand likely you'll need to remove the head again, have it checked for any warping as well as the block surface and make sure the gasket and torque down sequence goes perfect. i cant think of any quik fixes for something like this except some sort of sealent on the exterior to try and plug the leak although i wouldnt stake much faith in it. besides who knows where else the oil is leaking besides out of the head.

Ok, i know the head is striaght because I had my machine shop check and make sure the surface was ok. So im guessing the head was not torqued in sequence correctly. I get back to you on this. thanks again
