Coolent leak?

My K5 is 04. The usual bolt on's and a pipe. I noticed a little coolant residue around the head gasket area of the head. Anyone else seen this?
It's low time bike and I wonder if I should leave it to see what happens or change the gasket.

I'd start by re-checking the torques on the head nuts. Possible free fix.
