Blown head gasket?

I finally got the motor put back in my `85.I drove it for the first time today.It didn`t go very well.It had plenty of power but is leaking oil and coolant out of the front engine cover.The oil is leaking out where the head meets the front cover and the coolant is leaking under the water pump somewhere.It also blows a lot of steam out of the vent in the top of the valve cover.My assumption is that this motor has a blown head gasket.I need someone elses input just to verify I`m correct.The bottom end of the motor seems to be good,no knocking or anything.Let me know your thoughts ,,,thanks guys.
