Given the separation and all the metal between the crankcase and valve covers, how would a crankshaft whipping
oil be visible in the valve cover baffles?
IMO oil in the cylinder heads and valve covers is a result of oil pressure and volume. Once the oil gets pumped up there through the pushrods the rocker arms will spray it everywhere. Normal.
