Pull a couple of plug leads out and check for oil  :y
It could be your cam cover gaskets.

Do you know when the breathers was last cleaned out ?

Camcover gaskets.Clean breathers, replace gaskets with genuine items, torque to 8nm only,clean oil out of plug wells before it fries the HT components. :y
Change oil (GM 10/40 semi) approx. every 4000 miles and clean breathers every 6 months to prevent a reoccurence. ;)
