 Has the bike been stood for a while - I had a similar leak with a usa inport engine, decided as I needed the bike for work to ignore the leak and just keep the oil topped up until I had time to fix it, after a week of the 40 mile round trip to work the leak was gone and oil level stayed right between changes.

mike the bike:
I know a guy who had a minor crankcase oil leak.  He didn't fix it as such; he bodged up a bit of tubing to direct the oil over his drive chain.  "cheaper than buying a Scottoiler" he said.

Niko:
Fixed...turns out it was weeping from the cam chain tensioner bolt and running along the barrel case....dripping off the stator.
