the valve cover has seals on the bottom of them. they are called spark plug hole seals. i work for dodge and i had the same problem with a neon. was doing a tune up on it and the plugs i pulled out were dripping with oil. removed the valve cover, and replaced the valve cover spark plug seals. that took care of the problem.
