Are the bolts to keep the rocker cover down on the smallblock XE engines not on the cam shells?

Are the wells where the plugs sit, full of oil when you pull the lead off? If so, your rocker gasket is leaking and the plugs are getting covered when you remove them.

If there's no oil in the wells, but oil in the bores and on the end of the plugs, id expect to see ALOT of blue smoke coming out of the exhaust?
