is it getting in the spark plug hole? if so replace the valve cover seal, and all the spark plug hole seals and make sure u have the valve cover down tight

yeah...I had the same problem awhile ago. The rubber seals around the spark plug holes are your problem most likely

if its not that then the valve cover isnt down hard enough, thats the only way that could happen

NOPE none of that works butt guess what i found out what the problem was. it was the O-ring gasket from the ROCKER ARM. it was too old so i replaced all four and now it runs perfectly fine thanks to all for the help..
