Default WTF HeadGasket?

Yeah I had gotten this car about a week ago and I looked at it a couple of days ago and saw that it was leaking oil out of the head (about enough to cover 40% of the front of the block every week ). I checked the exhaust no smoke, and I checked the oil's dipstick and it's perfectly fine no discoloration or sign of it being "Milky". Im thinking that the guy just did-not tighten the head bolts all the way and that all they need to be is tight'end. But what do you guy's think?
