Default Got oil in my spark plug and ignition wires

Pulled the ignition wires out today to inspect he plug and oil was all over the plug and the ignition wire.
Anyone got any clues to what is wrong?

Spark plug tube o rings are shot. Easy fix. When you goto fix it though make sure you replace the valve cover gasket and o rings that mount under the bolts that hold the valve cover on too, if you dont you then you may spring a oil leak from one of those, since reusing gaskets is never a good idea.

But yeah, it's not a big deal for you, get the spark plug tube gaskets, should be 4 of them, place those. And if I were you, since I don't avoid spending money where it is needed, I'd gt some new NGK plugs and wires! OEM spec. Hope this helps

Already did those rings.
No help.
SO I guess my next hunch are the valve guides?
