Looks like the gasket was nicked at the fire ring by whoever built the engine. Ford doesn't do any remans on their own I don't think. They have a authorized contractor carry them out. Probably the same for GM, Mercedes has Detroit Diesel in Mexico do their remans.
Some coating failure too - but how? Exhaust gases in the coolant eating at it? Did you go with OEM Ford or Fel-Pro gaskets on this repair?
