I think Lee is on to something here. Very possible the bolts are too long and bottoming out. These gaskets are leaking along their length, indicative of the heads not being tight enough or seriously out of true. Regardless, the heads must come off, the surfaces and bolt length checked, and NEW gaskets must be installed. There have been incidents involving ARP bolts that are a hair too long, with the same result. Trying to simply re-torque and run is a shortcut and not in the best interest of the newly rebuilt engine.
