LS1 Oil Problem?

I had another cam swap done last week, and upon picking up the car the tech told me there was a light coat of oir around the intake ports. Is this anything to worry about? It doesn't appear to be burning oil.

Sounds pretty normal. Why did he have the intake off for a cam swap?

we used an older revision of head gaskets, which covered the lifter retainer bolts, thus had to pull off the heads.
