Default oil leak form head gasket

Have a small oil leak coming from the oil drain in the head leaks out the headgasket near distributor. Dont wanna replace the gasket just yet as its brand new. If it was real bad i would install my built GSR block, not worth the time to pull the head on this block. Ive had this problem with other blocks and deiff heads seems to happen alot (usin arp headbolts if thats any factor) any idea on a quick/temp fix for this issue? again its not a bad leak but some oil does seep out below exhaust manifold runner #4

Doubtful it is from the gasket. Probably the distributor O-ring needs replacing.
