Default Oil smell after running nitrous

Well, during and slightly after I do a highway run on a 75shot, full heads cam vette, I'm smelling oil. No leaks anywhere, no pools on the floor, catch can and filters all appear good. I'm going to do a compression check later tonight. Hoping it maybe a bad set of valve seals on two cyclinders (slight oil on plug threads #2 and #5). Any simular scenario's, because I keep thinking about 2001 Coupes motor
