Oil on one of my plugs....
While doing some of the usually weekend check-ups/maintenance I was going through the plugs and whires and I pulled the whole set of plugs and I found my #2 Leading plug with oil on it. I am guessing that this is from an oil ring that is going bad or has gone bad. This is the only possible source of motor oil since I pre-mix 100%. Here are some pics I took of the plugs:

Also do you all think they look like I am running "too" lean?

Looks like your leaking externally or oil spilled onto the housing to me.If oil burns on the plug it would be really cruddy like quaker state on valvetrains.
I would say you are running a little lean but they don't look too bad
