Oil on your spark plugs means that your tube seals are leaking. Usually there is an upper and a lower set of tube seals. The upper seals are in the valve cover, the lower ones are under the rocker assembly.

Your oil level is either leaking or being consumed.

Check again for leaks and check for smoke comming out of your exhaust.

Good Luck
