I've been noticing small amounts of moistrue/oil build up around here: I think it has something to do with the CAM shaft end seal.

Anyone else know whether this in important to fix up immediately or can wait?
If you know how to fix it, is it as simple as replacing a gasket?

Madmagna, any comments?

Looks just like dirt/grease buildup. It happens on most engines. U git dirt and grease building up around all the gaskets and stuff. Has it happend quicly or over a period of time?

I'll say over a period of 2 months, gradually building up.
