I pulled everything off the top of the engine. Replaced the seals on the oil fill and the dipstick tubes. Resealed the two plugs for the secondary air system that I removed. New crush washer on the oil level/pressure sender. The upper AOS hose appeared to be on and tight and I did not see oil around the fittings. Checked the lower AOS hose for cracks but did not see any.

I'm still not sure where the oil was coming from, hopefully it is now fixed. Going to do one day at Barber with Tracks Unlimited to make sure that it's fixed before the tow down to the NOLA race.
