Default Oil leaks still through valve cover after new replacement.

I recently replaced the valve cover gasket and all the spark plug gaskets as well, but I am still getting a leak around the gasket. The nuts are all tightend to torque specs and it is still leaking. What could be the problem? Also my sparkplug wire socket is getting covered in oil that is why i replaced the spark plug gasket. And it still is also, what am I doing wrong?? thanks for any help in advance
