V8S oil collection

[bicycleRepairMan]

Hi All
My V8S is collecting oil below the distributor. What you see in the photo was collected after crawling through traffic for 20 mins.

What are the most likely candidates for the leak? I guess I'm going to have to start dismantling bits to really see for certain what is leaking, but if anybody has a headsup where to start, I'd appreciate it.

The rocker covers are ok (I fixed a leak in one last weekend).

Cheers

Ian

Rocker box gasket. Just tweak it down

Distributor shaft oil seal then? If not that then probably valley gasket as per FB
