Is this a valve cover gasket leak?

I am posting a 3 photo zooming display for orientation purpose. So, is this oil coming from a valve cover gasket?

if its oil, then yes. that is exactly where the valve cover gaskets are and it is slowly starting to leak. wipe it down completely and check on it, if it comes back then its leaking. best to replace both if only one side is leaking
