Oil in my tail pipes

The other day i noticed that there is a few drops of oil comming out my tail pipes any ideas ?
Could my rocker arms be a little to tight ?

Re: Oil in my tail pipes

You sure it's oil and not just water mixed with some soot from the inside of the exhaust system?

The only way I could see oil comming out the tailpipe is if you had leaking valve stem seals or piston rings AND you had a cylinder that wasn't firing becuase any oil that does get in the cylinder should burn up.
