Hi eddie morrow,

Oil in spark plug tube are caused by bad plug seals under the valve cover and not a bad head gasket.

Engine not starting could be due to ignition, fuel or mechanical. You need to test and confirm what is missing causing the non starting. Follow the link and click the link that aptly describes you present situation and go through the testing procedures to find out what is missing.
