Default oil leak under header

Can anyone tell me what those little holes under the headers are for? are they oil over flows? cause my bike is leaking oil from the one closest to the shifter side.

maybe a gasket or a seal is damaged and leaking, but idk why you should have oil leaking from there. Might be a bad sign

Here is your answer. Went through it last week. Here is where I explained. No worries man, your bike is fine. $30.00 fix!

no it had to do with something about replacing the valve cover gasket where the spark plug meets the block if I'm not mistaken. it cost's $31.50
