Default Valve cover oil leak

I was in the process of pulling my trans to install the JWT clutch/flywheel combo when I noticed some oil on the heads that's coming from the valve cover gasket area. On the driver's side it's almost enough to cause a small drip...and on the passenger side head it's just seeping a tiny bit. I'm thinking I'm going to take the car to the dealer since it's still well within it's drivetrain warranty. Anybody else have this issue??

I had the same problem. The valve cover gasket is leaking. It took two different repairs to finally resolve the problem. My was only leaking on the drivers side.
