I'm wondering what could be oil fouling this exhaust valve?  Bad guide?  It is the valve on the passenger side rear.  However, the port has no oil burnt in it - just the stem and top of the valve.  The port looks like all the of the others, dry carbon residue.  We had a bad oil leak from the valve cover back there.  When we pulled the exhaust manifold off, there was oil behind the gasket on the head - could that be the cause?
Pic attached - sorry not focused very well.

A loose guide and bad valve seal will cause that condition....seen it before.  :yesnod:
