I don't think you could entirely rule out crankcase pressure, based on the dipstick. The rings are not fully seated yet, and will need some miles on them before they do. Just about every motor I've built had some seapage here and there, but usually stopped after some breakin time. So, I hafta think, with all "the right stuff" you put in there, it has to be a matter of breaking in and some time for seals to ... well ...
seal! (I'm just sayin.)
Besides....This is a
British motor. Oil leak??
What else would you expect??
Sure wish ya coulda made it to the Pizza GTG. It was a good time, as usual, and the Hillbilly pizza was terrific as usual!
You other casual readers never heard of Hillbilly pizza??? Oh! You don't know what your missing! Hafta come to Bob's place for one of the FBI gatherings and find out!
