Dean, the valve stems need to have some
oil to them for lubrication, but there should not be
oil pooling on top of the valve head.
Usually new engines don't have valve seal issues because we've gotten away from running the old o-rings and umbrella seals. However I've seen a lot of old cars puff on an upshift.
