Default oil leak

96 accord 4 cyl 2.2 automatic

about 3 monts ago i had oil leaking into my spark plugs, for the second time. i took it to the shop and they cleaned it all out and "fixed" it. now 6,000 miles later its leaking oil in the spark plugs again. what could be the cause?

there are orings under the cam caps in the spark plug tube as well, this requires removing ur cam caps to access. and these are prone to leaking as well as the orings under the valve cover. it sounds liek the mechanic replaced the orings under the valve cover instead of the orings under the cam caps.
