Question Oil leak

Hi

Have just noticed what looks like an oil leak from the top of cylinder no.1 (where the ht lead cap fits) on my UK MY99. The plug itself doesn't look any more oily than the others nor does it look like the oil has dropped down from something above. Should i be concerned as it's going for a Bob Rawle remap at the weekend?
Previous mods have been tek3 by TSL, decat exhaust, panel filter, high flow fuel pump and forge recirc. dump valve.

there is a funny shaped seal that seats in between the rocker cover and the head, that seperates the spark plug tower from the cam deck area. its this thats gone.

nothing to worry about for remapping, but it will only get worse so needs fixing when you get a minute or 59.

funnily enough im being mapped 9.30 on saturday at bobs. see you there.
