Oil leaking from some where?

In the pictures does it look like too much oil. It doesn't smell like diesel. Truck runs great. like to hear your thoughts. Click on Image for bigger pics. Oil level stays at the full mark.

Are you talking about the weepage at the rocker box? If so it seems that a lot of these engines weep/seep there.Takes a long time for that to show up.The rocker box gasket is covered under the 100k warranty with no deductable.I had mine replaced and no more weepage.Takes less then a hour to repair.Needs to be replaced and retorqued on a cold engine.If you clean the engine it will probably take a long time for the weepage to re appear.It would take a LOT of that to ever get the oil level down.
