Oil under engine cover!

Hello all, I was replacing one of my hoses so I took the time to remove the engine cover and found the engine covered in oil just under the four "spigots" on the air intake, I think this is just oil steam but I just wanted to check if you guys have had this happen or should I be worried?

This picture is my engine, but I have ringed where the oil is.

As you say, probably oil vapour from the joint just to the left of the spigots (or organ pipes). That pipe is moulded plastic and I had a leak at the bellows to the right nearer the air filter. The pipe work had split in a mould line.
