I had to retorque mine 6 times. The 5th time I bumped the torque up to 75. Checked the 6th time and the torque held. Mine too would seep in the middle on the right side. Before the gasket was replaced it leaked anti-freeze. After the middle of the right side a little oil. There is an oil and antifreeze channel very close to the edge of the block.
I live with my oil leak.
I also used copper spray.
If there is a next time, I'm going to get high temp RTV and give a small thin coat of silicone around all oil and anti freeze port.
I've seen this done and head gasket never leaked. Dealer replaced head gasket twice and it still leaked. Helped a guy. He used silicone, in the early 1970's. Lasted him for years.
I figure the worst can happen is I'll replace the head gasket again. They are not that expensive or hard to replace.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
