48IDA Weber abnormality

I do not use air cleaners on my Webers as they really destroy the looks, and I don't believe extensive harm will come to the motor with a couple hundred miles a month (I hope). Lately I started to put the Velocity stack caps on the carbs when parking it for a few days. Today I noticed oil on the underside of two connected caps on the carb that sits above cylinders 3 and 4. Could this to be from off gassing as I'm not burning oil? If so, why on two stacks only? Valve position? The inside of the stacks had a very slight oily film on them. I'm stumped and a little worried.
