Could have been the oil gallery hole indeed James, I did have a bit of oil around the head joint in that area too, without too much thought I just assumed it was wind blown from the water pump stud but gallery hole leakage fits better.
I'm surprised the head gasket lasted as long as it did really.

you can put it together again with confidence, its not something ive ever come across on a tdi
