the oil in the spark plug well is due to the spark plug tube seals and the rocker assembly seals leaking. just need to get them replaced. I would also recommend plugs and plug wires also.

As for overheat symptom, you may have a t-stat stuck closed. awefully hard to diagnose over the internet though without seeing the car. know what I mean?

This might be a problem you want to bring to a shop, unless you have the skills to fix it.
