oil leak 305

Recently rebuilt Dream 305. Put new pistons, rings, and valves (not guides). Runs nicely, little smoke on right cylinder, noticed small oil spatter near the head bolt (not one of 8 on top of head) that is next to the spark plug. Any thoughts?

Check the bolts and/or gasket on the cam cover on that side. Mine had a similar leak when I bought it and the bolts were loose.

If you still have the leak, there is a small (4 to 5MM) casting plug forward of the spark plug. Check it for the leak.
