Re: oil leak
Valve cover gasket is more likely; my 02 does the same thing, after cleaning and rechecking it was obviously the valve cover gasket, so do what Eclipse99fwb said before you start throwing parts at it.
FWIW, I found the leak two years ago and still haven't bothered fixing it. Between 8000km oil changes of 5w20, I'm barely losing half a quart. And at 491k km, it's probably not worth fixing at all anymore lol.
