Oil leaked on me twice on the valve cover passenger side near oil fill cap. PIC> - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Hi guys yesterday I drove the car over 1000km to and from an airport half mile event and the only issue I had was twice I noticed a little oil burning smell and when I popped the hood I found oil on the valve cover near the oil fill cap. The cap clicks but is loose /jiggly making me think it's coming from there. There is a catch can on the motor and it did pull about 2 tablespoons.

Is the oil fill cap tight when you guys tighten yours down ?
