If u have oil on the outside of the sparkplugs then u need to replace the valve cover pretty easy to do.when u replace it just make sure u put a bead of silcone along the the surface where the front cover meets the head and the valve cover meets the two surfaces on the front and the back of the head or it will leak oil.let me know how it goes.
