Oil coming from header flanges?

I can see where it looks like oil coming from some of my exhaust ports and barely seeping out around the header flanges. I'm kinda worried. What causes that?

Not a leaky valve, but a leaking valve stem seal. Big difference. Steam seals arent hard to swap, takes a few hours.
