You need a new head gasket. They seal by crushing the material between the head and block, and once that happens, there's a very high chance that they'll leak if you try and reuse them.
Anyway, head gaskets are only $40 or so...it's not like you're spending that much.

You can reuse or buy a new one, I would just spend the extra cash and buy a new one...
