    my guess is that they didnt have the gasket all the way on the valve cover when they put it back on... and it is possible the gasket went inward in the rocker area. at which point...there is NO seal on the bottom of the valve cover..and it is leaking oil down the head and onto the header.

    this is my theory...as it is EXTREMELY possible.
