Oil in spark plug holes

Ok the lovely people,

    02 plated 1.4cc 16v Lupo, it would appear I have oil leaking into the spark plug holes from presumably the cam/rocker gasket, but looking at new gaskets they only go around the outside of the cover.

  So question time, what is there in place to stop the leak? Rubber o rings or something like that?

 

  Cheers folks

Ok think I found the issue looking through the forum, turns out it sealed with sealant and not a gasket and its a pig to do as the cams are in the casing so the cam belt has to come off, cam belt could do with changing anyway so there's the next wee jobbie 🙄
