do b-series always leak a little be of oil between head and block?
I got a b20 that leaks some oil between the head and block and when i got it from a friend he said the b-series always do that, its not a big problem to me but wondering ifs its true? and if i was to replace my head gasket down the road how would i go about fixing the oil leak so i don't have to worry about it anymore?

I've seen this before once on a guy's GSR motor that was totally ghettoed together, which he ran at 9,000 RPM on stock internals. No your motor should not leak oil between the block and head. I've heard of people re-torquing their head studs to Honda specs, and it lessened the problems they were having.
If your head gasket is leaking oil it should be replaced.

an engine fluid leak is never "normal"
Especially if it's Oil.
It could be various things though...
