My Proton had a rubber insert in the head gasket which leaked. Oil ran out between head and cylinder. Occured at 45k miles. Solution was a new gasket. A local motor parts shop supplied an oil additive to prevent a reoccurance.

An oil leak there is probably a valve cover gasket leaking. it would not require head gasket replacment. Try tightning the bolts on the valve cover.
