It was pushing into the radiator and overheating/pushing antifreeze out the cap fast after starting. The head gasket it distorted on both ends but the main gasket rings look ok. By the pictures would that do it?

That gasket is totally toast . Don’t think you did that pulling the head off , to distort the fire rings like that. You can see it has been like that for a while just by the carbon build up. Another example of a no retorque after a warm up.

I was thinking cheap head gasket but never thought of the no re torque. I bought it that way
