Re: oil in spark plugs tube and oil leak out of engine

Oil in the spark plug tubes is common. Replace the valve cover gaskets and soak up as much as the oil as you can out of the tubes with rags. Not a bad time to replace the plugs and possibly the wires (might be bloated from soaking in oil.

As far as the oil leaking after the oil change. Make sure you didn't "double gasket" the oil filter. If the old gasket from the old filter stuck to the block it will cause an oil leak when you spin on the new filter.
