You just need to get some rings for the spark plug tubes and it should take care of your chocolate lolly pops. (oil coated spark plugs)

The d15/16 also have o-rings
<u>under the rocker assembly</u> that can cause the leak..

Yeah, I think #3 is it. I had the same issue but when I went to honda they sold me a gasket kit that had the tube seals and the valve cover gasket in the same box.

Takes 20 minutes to replace all of the seals.
