I've done PCA DE's and have passed every tech inspection. My motor shows signs of seepage in multiple areas. I've never experienced any problems getting through tech with this. If you have a relationship with a decent shop who knows you and your car, this shouldn't be a problem. I've had two shops point out seepage (and offer to fix them, for a pretty penny), but I've never failed pre-tech for that stuff. I've heard of air-cooled cars that don't show any signs of oil seepage, but I believe that these are found in the unicorn aisle of your local store.
On the other hand, if you're dropping significant amounts of oil onto the track surface (or have fittings that show imminent signs of catastrophic failure), that car probably shouldn't be on the track.
