Don't worry. I have this same problem. My lower middle stud/nut has oil all over it.

I didn't know why but now I know. Thanks to all.

Have you ever taken off your exhaust mani/studs previously?

Your manifold is not sealing to your head. It is either loose studs, faulty gasket, or warped surface. I would re-torque the studs, then clean the oil off
