It is most likely your valve cover gasket, but dont stress if you check your plugs once a month to make sure there isnt oil and if there is you clean it, its not really a problem.
I actually had the same problem with my eagle talon TSI, this is what you do.
First I took a shop vac and sucked out as much as possible. Then you take a small piece of paper towl and use a screw driver to get around the plug. Get it as clean as possible, you don't want that oil dripping down into the well. A question i have for you was the oil dirty (black) or was it clean? The oil in mine was very clean and there was oil all under my spark plug cover from spilling oil while filling the car over years. Also make sure you look in the plug wires inside of the boot to make sure the contacts are shiny and not black. My cylinder one boot was ruined and I had to replace my wires. If you replace your wires make sure to replace your plugs.
DO NOT let the oil drip down into your engine. This is not good for your entire car. Do you think oxygen sensors like to get gunked up with oil, not to mention engine components?
