Oil sitting next to shim in Cylinder 1 Intake

[cowboyup3371]

Okay, so I checked all the valve clearances and although my .04 mm feeler gauge wouldn't fit through on any cylinder, each tappet spun using my finger easily. My shim sizes were:

1 Exhaust - 2.75
1 Intake - 2.75
2 Exhaust - 2.75
2 Intake - 2.70
3 Exhaust - 2.60
3 Intake - 2.70
4 Exhaust - 2.75
4 Intake 2.70

So I'll move a couple around, pop in one or two that Tkent02 gave me and order/find some others. However, I also noted one issue - oil was pooled next to the tappet in cylinder 1 intake. Although I used the search feature I think I'm using the wrong terms because I didn't find this problem.

Is the oil up there in this one cylinder only indicative of a bigger problem or could it have gotten up there just by being on the tappet as it turned around in the engine? Do I need to do a bigger repair job now or can I wait till winter time after replacing the shims and still get some riding time in now? Or am I misunderstanding what I am seeing?

Thanks guys.

Oil flies all over the place up there when it's running, most of it drains down when you shut it off, some of it stays in the pockets for the shims. It's not a problem, it's how they are.

Update: Number 1 plug looks fine just might be running a little rich on that one.

Okay, cool. Thank you for the help. Now to find shims then.
