Anybody else experienced problems with a small oil leak coming from the transmission end of the case, but the oil actually collecting on the bottom of the case beside the plug? It's almost like it sweats it out of there. I also just noticed oil sweating out of one of the valve covers and the cam gear cover. It did get pretty hot while poking through some tight trails and then I went through a creek with it up to the exhaust the last time I rode. I'm really starting to consider an oil cooler also, if I can get brave enough to drill in the clutch side cover.
 
you should really go ahead and do the cooler.

as far as the leaks go it just sounds like maybe the seal around the plug and valve cover may be bad.
 
I'm pretty sure the o-rings are good but I can check the allen bolts for tightness I guess.
