I suppose you could goto autozone and try a seal sweller.
A chemical in there supposedly softens and swells the rubber, perhaps then if it is a rear seal, it would go away. Also check the oil pan gasket and valve cover gasket.
On my contour zetec, the oil pan had rusted out.
ATP #atc-205 fluid system sealer 
Maybe I'll consider getting a sealer, but I still want to get a second opinion from another shop.
How do u check if the valve cover gasket is good?
