Cool.

It is unlikely that Drupal needs the content as gzip. Have you
compared the actual data? Does the format and encoding match? Do you
use CR LR and not just LF or CR? Are you sure content-length matches
the lenght of your content? Have you tried returning the same thing as
Google just without gzip (and a correct content-lenght). Have you
tried dropping the content-disposition header? ...

Not with Drupal.

I don't think this is your problem.
