oil smells like gas........ im scared 900 1992

I have been noticing a weird smell lately while stopped at traffic lights and after i get out of the car when its been running a while. It's not an oil smell and not gas smell not really even an exhaust smell but maybe a mixture of all 3. well anywho i just made a 300 mile trip and the next morning checked the oil to see if it had used any on the way up, it did not, but... i did notice that weird smell that smells like a gas/oil mixture on the dipstick.. so im guessing that somehow gas is getting in with the oil and knowing my luck it will be expensive... btw i just had blown head gasket repaired about 5 months ago. any ideas?
