Just washed the bike and when I started her up I noticed after a few mins some oil coming from this hole. Any ideas why this should be?

Gin Reaper has just informed me it's a spark plug drain hole so mystery solved!

Think it means you have failed spark plug tube o-rings and oil pooling around top of spark plug.

Yep usually a pinched/faulty/perished spark plug seal, easy fix though.
