I have a set of SB E-heads that were done at a good mopar race shop and used for a short time and then sat idle for 5 years.I tested them with some fuel to see if they were sealing and they didn't leak,then I took them apart and cleaned the heads up and now there is a couple of ports that leak verry slightly.Should I get some lapping compound and lap them or will I do more harm than good?

Did you put the valves back in their same cylinders ???

Use a VERY fine compound. Most of the standard over-the-counter crap is like gravel !!

Yes you need fine compound... but it cant be worse
if its leaking now... but thats also how they determine
the back cut on the valve
