After I installed my 16g last weekend I have noticed a little bit of oil coming out of cylinder 4's runner on the exhaust manifold. I think it could either be a valve seal or a piston ring...any other ideas?

Welcome to the broken valve seal club!
I'm not worrying about it though, it doesn't burn that much oil. To double check, start a cold car and drive it around, you should see some blue smoke, or WOT shifts, blue smoke as well.
