Replace your valve cover gaskets. They sell them as a kit at an auto parts store which include the valve cover gasket, round seals for each spark plug, and new washers with the rubber on the bottom. Kit cost me $14.46 bucks and have done this on 9 different Hondas. All had the same symptoms.

That's what the kit includes. Now this particular kit is for a D16Y7, so make sure you get the correct kit. D15B7 has different spark plug seals.
