Default just fired up the crvtec........big problem, need ideas

ok i bought the crvtec from a local guy, hes very smart and respected as far as honda's, some of you make know him on this board as Reno Racing......anyways i got it all put in a fired it up, it started perfectly and i only let it run for 20-30sec. I get out and my buddy was telling me its leaking oil on the tranny from the dizzy area.......we look under the car and it looks like %80+ of my oil came out of the motor in that time!........checked all the sensors and dizzy but they were all fine, the leak looks like its coming from the headgasket/head.......now the only thing i can think of is maybe he told me he plugged the head but didnt??? what else could make it loose that much oil that quick? any suggestions would be great, other than that the motor seems to be perfect

That's a possibility. Another possibility is a leak in the external oil lines.
