There's not much else it could be if the oil is coming out betwixt head and block. Make sure it's not dribbling down from somewhere else. If your finds are conclusive, replace that bastard with a 2mm gasket

Exactly what he said...gravity sucks, look up. Clean everything off, and try to track a drip up to the source.
