Lots of maybes but it's likely something simple.
What head bolt torque value did you use?
Can you see any leakage from under the valve covers?

Hiya's,
I'll throw this out there...I had a set of EngineTech head gaskets leak water as I was filling the radiator, I was hoping a couple heat cycles would do something, nope. The fire ring wouldn't compress enough for the rest of the gasket seal to work :(

did you put thread sealant on all the headbolts? they all go into coolant...
sbc definitely have head bolts that go into coolant. you're right not all but i put sealer on all of them so they torque the same
YMMV but thats what I was taught.
