Default Any ideas :oil on an injector ?

I'm stripping down the kv6 engine at the moment to replace valve stem oil seals , and have come across something perhaps odd
After removing the injectors I noticed that the bottom of the injector on cylinder no 5 ( rear end of LH bank ) is wet with oil , as is its seating in the manifold . Photo shows it as best as I can.
The other injectors are quite dry . . Could this be related to my blue smoke on startup problem ? I would add that the exterior of the injector is quite clean and the oil is only down by the bottom O-ring . I may see more when I get the manifold off . I have new O-rings ready to go back on .
Any ideas please ………..
