    Not tight enough? Maybe the nut grommet is shot.

      I had that same problem, and it was my nut grommet. I just bought a new valve cover gasket and it came with new grommets and whatnot, I paid like less than $10 at Advance Auto.

          It's the small black pieces that goes on before the gold valve cover nuts.

            a nut grommet is a little rubber washer/seal with a metal cap on it (to bear the pressure of the nut) than goes on the bolt before you tighten the nut. It seals the valve cover hole shut when the nut is tightened.

                    Your getting blowby its normal when you get a little bit of oil out liek that it happens when the motor has to vent through the crankcase pressure.

                    WHAT IS BLOW-BY?
                    What is Blow-by?
                    Blow-by occurs when the explosion that occurs in your engine's combustion chamber causes fuel, air and moisture to be forced past the rings into the crankcase. Your engine's rings must maintain an excellent fit in order to contain the pressure.
                    The causes of blow-by: wear, soot and deposits
                    As rings and cylinder liners wear away they are less capable of maintaining this seal. Consequently as a car ages the amount of blow-by that occurs can increase.
                    Soot and deposits left over from incomplete combustion that collect on the rings can also inhibit their seal worsening blow-by.
                    The effects of blow-by: loss of horsepower and oil contamination and dilution
                    Blow-by inhibits performance because it results in a loss of compression. When the expanding gases slip past the rings they cannot as effectively push the piston down and make the vehicle go. As a result the car will have less horsepower. This also results in a loss of fuel economy.
                    When the fuel, air and moisture slip into the crankcase they contaminate and dilute the oil in the crankcase.

                    Among the many gasses in your compression chamber are unburned fuel, moisture, sulfur dioxide and soot. Once these gasses slip into your crankcase they can dilute into your engine causing great damage.

                    The detergents and Molybdenum Disulfide work together to clean the soot and deposits off of your rings allowing them to better seal the combustion chamber. AKA seafoam ring a bell????
                    The Moly fills the crevices in the cylinder walls providing a better seal:

                    I looked it up. As the engine overtime gets worn it causes this. As long as it doesnt get too worn to a point where your smoking its normal. If your that concerned about it get a catchcan a good one.

                    If you check that its doing too much of this like your air filter completely soaked like someone dipped it in oil, then you got a serious problem.
