Torque on Head bolts? I'm getting water

I torqued my head bolts down to 70 newton . that's all I did. It had 215K on the engine and I used the same head bolts but put new washers on them. The bolts seemed tight. I'm geting a little bit of water in the oil. Should I have replaced the head bolts they were 120mm ? I'm worried that the head is not tight enough.
I'm not driving it until I figure it out.
The manual said something about using a regular wrench and tighten the bolts twice by 90 degrees.
Help!
