Head Gasket????

I just put a scheid diesel lightning injection pump on my truck and pulled in the driveway today and noticed an oil spot under the truck. At first look it looked like it was coming from behind where the fan pulley bracket bolts on (not sure what that is called if someone could let me know i would apprectiate it). I am pretty sure that oil should not be coming out in that area but i have been wrong. The head gasket is directly above that so i was wondering if anyone elses head gasket started leaking oil rather than coolant or is it something else. Thanks!!!!
