Default Misting

Help please...just installed new cams, pushrods, etc. in my Fattie and got a chance to actually put about 30 miles on it today for a true test. After putting the pushrod clips on wrong when I put it back together ( I shoved the larger diameter part up top and put the clips in under the larger diameter part and the "lip" of the lower tube...dumbass!) everything seems fine except I am getting a little "misting" of oil from what appears to be just one of the pushrod covers. It appears to be fron the front intake tube. Any ideas? any one have this issue in the past? Wondering if just maybe removing the clip and turning the tube might help? Just really don't want to have to take out the pushrods and go through all that just to change out o-rings....
