I have a 468 motor and last night at the track I noticed a light film of oil on the inside of one of my zoomie hearder. Can someone tell me what this might could be? 
Thanks

Might be sucking oil through the guides if you don't run valve seals. Might be sucking oil through the rings if you run low tension rings. Have you done a compression check on that cylinder yet?
