Not a big deal as everyone stated. THe car will still make the trip fine. It smoked because that oil went down into the cylinder when you removed the plug. Just get some new gaskets/seals.
Yah, I know it wasn't a big deal and it does not effect the driveability of the car... I had new valve cover gaskets installed no more than 5 years ago along with a new rear head...
sooo no one answered my question.... do dealerships put oil in by the plugs to help seal everything or does that seem silly - I havn't checked my plugs since I had the head replaced 5 yrs ago so they might have put the oil there... I guess I will find out with time kuz if it is leaking from the valve cover gasket then eventually there will be oil there again... - JOE
