Pull them out and post some pics. We can't tell too much from that end.

Sounds like it's just leaky spark plug well seals. Nothing to be alarmed about, but you may want to think about doing your valve cover eventually.

I did this this past weekend is very easy, just tale all the bolts off, take the valve cover gasket and the o-ring gasket out, and in the valve cover there are the markings to put the new gaskets, and the new gaskets have space in the middle to put hi-temp silicone, it fixed the spark plug well soaked in oil, but i'm still getting oil in TOP of the valve cover, any suggestions, i think is coming from the screw just below the oil cap.
