Time for valve cover gaskets?
Did a spark plug change today and am a bit concerned about my findings. Take a look at #s 6 and 7 - particularly 7. Photos are in order with two pictures of #7. Also noticed some oil on the coils.
Please let me know what you guys think & if anyone has seen this when they're changing plugs. My CPO is up in 7 days & planned on having it in this week for possible valley plate leak & air bag recall.
08 with 57k miles. Thanks.

Not the valve cover gaskets, but the spark plug tube seals. They have pretty obviously failed.

10-4, thanks. I should've done a better job searching the forums for this one. I got too preoccupied with the idea that this was the gasket.
