This happened to me a little while ago, what happened with mine was there is a seal/gasket under the valve cover (Called valve cover gasket) that is bad and needs to be replaced. Oil will leak out in small amounts and it get's on the heat shield covering the header. The gasket is cheap something like $30-40 and can be replaced easily by yourself. Like I said this was my problem and it may be different for you.
