Default Some leaking from the engine

My bike is a 2015 dyna wideglide 103
just noticed some leaking by the head and I’m assuming that isn’t a good thing. I’ll throw some photos in also. If anyone has an idea about this would love to know and hope it’s not too bad. This NS

If you have a head leak, opposed to a rocker box leak you need to get that fixed ASAP don’t even ride it, if it’s rocker boxes wipe it off and change them during some down time like winter...

Looks like its coming from the top cover. Check the torque on the cover bolts 15 to 18 ft. lbs.

Also check inside your air cleaner before you look anywhere else. It could be excess vented from the crank case

If you're not running an external breather that might help, not sure of the excess pressure would reverb back in or something, that's above my knowledge but someone hopefully will chime in an concur or dismiss my nonsense...
