RE: oil on the spark plugs?
That means the spark plug grommets are old (and probably crispy). These are the rubber seals that go in the valve cover around the spark plug holes. They usually come in valve cover gasket sets, so just pick one of those up and do them all together. Or, (worst case) your valve cover is cracked, but that should be pretty obvious.
