oil leaking

I have just noticed slight oil creepage would be a better word, on the intakes on top of the engine...like not really leaking but you can see how the intakes have dampness coming from where they meet the rubber gaskets...anyone else seen/experienced this? and what to do...? also at the base of the hydraulic reservoir it is getting wet as power steering caps do... I do not run her hard, this also needs attention

Perhaps you've got a faulty Helmholtz resonator? (just kidding)

are you sure the intake stuff is oil and not PS fluid also? maybe you had a blowoff (or whatever it's called) from the overflow valve.

does anyone else have this? I can't believe I am alone in this... is there a valve that maybe gets stuck/needs replacing? it isn't much but I can tell that it will get worse...
