Everytime I drive the car, I get small puddles of oil in shown areas. I wipe it off and comes back, since it's above the valve covers, coming from the bolts? I "snugged" the bolts a wee bit, but didn't help. Thought I'd ask for help before I start taking stuff apart....BTW, I did get the turn signal issue fixed....KISS...changed the left bulb, forgot about the dual elements...

Think your intake is leaking. Either way easy to pull the intake esp if it is a bb. Just have new pan ready and torque in proper order should clear that up. Mine did the same kept changing valve cover gaskets and wasn't it.
 
If you just snugged them, I would suggest finding out what the torque spec is and torque them in the proper order. It could be because of that?
