Yes check the torques. I have found loose ones on occasion. Mine seeps oil at that spot when under heavy load and the oil is too thick for the cold weather that set in before I was ready for it. All bolts are at full torque too. That area of the head doesn't get a lot of clamping pressure apparently.
I would throw in some stop leak or some pepper and have a go at it. It will likely leak less when warmed up well. With two acres you won't be stressed from watching the temp for days on end and be likely to forget, and if you have a two bottom then life gets easier too. On the other hand, running a disk will put some heat in it. Those things can be a load.
Be very careful of the temperature. Do NOT let it get above 200. EVER. Once they are above the thermostat bad things happen to a gas start.
Congrats on having a runner, even if a slightly hobbled one. 8)
