Where is it leaking oil...on which side of the head and by what? The reason I ask is because there is an oil passage that goes up to the rocker arms thru a stud and that stud has a oil delivery hole in it that does have to be lined up with the rocker arm correctly. This stud is the center stud of the rocker arms and is on the spark plug side of the engine between plugs 2 and 3. Are you leaking oil above those two plugs? If so you might have a problem with this stud and it's alignment. If the oil can not get out the hole to the rocker arms then the pressure could build up and possible leak out at the head gasket.
