New build (not fired), water in cylinder-head gasket backwards?

[busmania]

I am close to starting my engine. Yesterday I filled it with 4 gallons of coolant but then ran out so today I moved to building oil pressure. After I got pressure I bought more coolant. Just after adding my 5th gallon, I realized it looked like some leaked into cylinder 6. After blowing it out, then doing it again 5 minutes later and again I realized water was seeping in so I drained some coolant and pulled the head. This is what I found (coolant in 6). Is my head gasket backwards? What else would cause it to leak I to cylinder when it hasn’t run yet? I used no sealer on the gaskets figuring I’d probably have to take it apart anyway soon. What do you think?
