You may get a few different opinions on gasket goo ;-)
It is recommended by some to re-torque the head nuts when hot, after
300 miles. You may get some joy by doing it now. Torque in the
specific order (check your manual).
Did you replace the head studs and nuts? If they are worn, the poor
fit means more of the tightening torque goes into turning the nut and less
into clamping the head. Over-torquing brings the risk of snapping or
stripping one.
Did the gasket twice in a month on my Mini, making a dribbler the first
time, but dry as a bone after new studs, etc.
