Definitely found your problem. While the head is off take it to a machine shop and have the surface milled. Probably cost $75-$100 but no point putting a warped head back on. New head gasket and follow torqueing instructions in Les Andrews book and hopefully problem solved.
I had same problem this summer between #2 and #3 cylinders. my head was so warped though that you could actually feel the indentation it with your fingers.
