Default HELP! NO START CEL BUT ECU NOT FLASHING

Hi guys,

MY car again is having issue, on my way home close to home cel comes on i decided to pull into variety store to loo at the flashing lights on the ecu for cel code (90 civic dx with d16a6) as i pulled in car oil light came on possibly but the car died as i pulled so it couldve been normal

try to start care turns over no start, all lights come on cel is there and ecu is not flashing, it was night so i had to use a flash light, checked all fuses all looked all right, Ive been having a little bit of oil on 3 out of 4 plugs one closest to dizzy was the worst,

I pulled my plugs and the tube was filled with oil around the plugs a lot more then normal

I quickly looked at grounds they looked fine


what im asking for is some ideas for me to try tmrw morning to get this thing going


Summary

d16a6
oil in plugs
car died
ecu not flashing but cel came on oil light possibly came on but may have been car dieing
don't hear to fuel pump prime
car turns over strong but no start
fuses are good
before cel came on and car died hard to accelerate would back fire

my questions
BAD ECU?----what test can i do to check
Oil in plugs- i know could be valve cover seals ill check
bad grounds? i know most grounds could you help me figure ito out
What would or cause the car to die like that after coming off the highway with no issues

If your ECU is bad the only way I know to test it is to try another

ECU fuse is the same as HZ fuse in the engine compartment fuse box next to the shock tower

Distributor rotor is loose

Ignition switch is bad
