Is it common for SR's to have some seepage from the head gasket just above the power steering?

My SR came out of my buddys car and was running very strong at the time- no indication of a head gasket issue. But I've noticed it has what looks like oil running down the block, and it looks like its coming from the front corner of the head gasket just above the power steering. Im debating if this is a big enough issue to warrant putting a new HG on before I swap it in.
