Leaking valve cover write in campaign
lol....what some people should know is that even when you change out your rings (which you should do if you do have a leak in the spark plug hole) is that the new ones are just going to go out as well (depending on the severity of the situation).
what happens is the positive crankcase ventilation system isn't working properly. So when there is an issue with the system then it sucks oil up from the VC into the intake manifold which then gets sucked into the combustion chamber to be ignited and blown out the exhaust. But when oil starts to accumulate at the top of the VC (on the inside at the top where the rings are) because of inproper PCV it will eventually eat away at the O-rings and causing a leak into the sparkplug hole, which then can also lead to misfire due to a damaged coilpack. High heat mixed with oil and rubber/plastic (O-rings and coilpacks) is a bad combination.
It could be bad PCV hoses (cracked, deteriorated, ect.) and/or it could be a blockage in the hoses. What you need to do when you do get new o-rings or VC is service your PCV hoses. Ensure they are in good condition, flush them of all excess oil, and check/clean the PCV valve. Or else the new O rings or VC or coilpacks are just going to go bad on you again in time. Fix it at the root of the problem first then work up.
