What you're probably seeing is normal. I notice it more when cold on my 327, but it's never anything crazy. If you're snake oiling it (seafoam, etc.) you'll see it a lot until you drive that stuff out of your system. Take a pic or make a video so we can see, but it's probably fine. Again, you won't notice it when the hood is shut.

Take some compression readings if you're worried about rings.
