Wow, dude.
Bought. Built. Leaking.
Aside from that, did you have the head resurfaced prior to installing the new gasket? If not, it's more than likely the culprit. You're not the first to go through this. I've had stretched stock studs, toasted gaskets, and done the same thing, resulting in an almost permanently leaking HG on my own car.
You could yank the valve cover and see if you can't put some more torque on the ARPs, but you're probably going to have to pull the head again.
Don't give up! You have one of the cleanest cars around!

The heater hoses feed the heater core on that side of the motor. make sure you don't have a small leak there.
