Default 2000 Si head gasket question

Hello everyone.
I recently bougth a 2000 si with blown motor in it.
Installed a b16a in it yesterday and today, after giving it a little gas, noticed oil coming out of the head gasket. Looks like its coming from below distributor.
Its my head gasket upside down?? I read that it may cause oil leak.
I bought the engine complete from a friend of a friend who, supposedly, knows his hondas. He said that engine has lower miles and was running in his car.
I have no loss of compression and engine sounds really good except for the leak.
Any help will be appreciated

Check the dizzy o-ring. The oil could be coming from there.

I hope thats the case. I wasnt leaking right after the swap. Only after I punched it a few times.
