motor oil leaking during wheelies ?

I recently noticed oil leaking around the clutch cover on my 01 f4i. i resealed the clutch cover, and the timing chain tensioner. the head,camcover, and rest of engine dry. i rode around for 1 hr. and no leaks. then i ride a wheelie and clutch cover is wet again. i check around sealant and its dry? chain tensioner is dry? where is it coming from. it wont leak if its just sittin there, any good ideas?? speak up could it be from the lever that pulls the clucth, it comes up throu the side of the cover, but i checked it and it looked fine

yeah pull your tank, pull your air box.. find the hose leading into your air box from your tranny/engine, its pretty obvios when u find it, your prolly dumping oil into your air box while you wheelie from the crank case breater hose, only thing i can tell you is check the hose for cracks or get some RTV from autozone and make a better gasket for your air box if thats the case.. my air box dumped alot of oil cause my air box was alittle worped, don't plug the hose though, or you'll blow seals...
