Its pretty common on higher mileage small blocks the gasket will deteriorate where the coolant flows, hopefully its not getting into the oil gallery.
I agree with you on that, where you put a dab of gasket sealer on the runner where it meets the head, but he said hole. You are more than likely right though. Good call.

Honestly, I had a leak where you took the picture. But first, take a vaccum and clean all the loose stuff thats there, better yet...clean the whole area. Get some Permatex Degreaser and rinse it off. Come back with better pictures.
