Being a garage probably aint done the gaskets properly.  Have you had a little look yourself to see if any more oil has got into plug wells.  Thay may have gone again if breathers were not cleaned at same time.

Not to mention that if the oil from the gaskets wasn't cleaned up, it will continue to burn off for ages...
