Glad you fixed it. There are spark plug tube seals that can wear out over time. This may be the source of the oil. They often come with a replacement valve cover gasket kit and will be changed out at the same time. Valve cover gaskets are a known issue on this car at higher mileage. You may want to check them out and see if they are leaking. Some on this site say the valve cover gaskets are easy to change out, others say it is a more involved task. I haven't done it myself but may do it some day soon as I can see a slight seepage.

Ok so I cleared codes through my scanner (there weren't any but thought I would try that). Check VSC comes on as soon as the car begins to move. What could be causing this? I'm confused as to how an ignition component can affect stability control somehow.

With a normal code reader you will only be able to read generic P codes. If there is a problem with the ABS braking system or airbag system, it won't show up unless it has the capability. It could be a wheel speed sensor for example as this is a common problem.
There is a trick to jumper two pins on the OBD plug under the dash to get it to flash these extended, vehicle manufacturer specific codes. You can then post them here and we can tell you what they are. I'll try and find that for you.

Wow did this and it worked. Thank you so much. I love this forum. Now I just need to replace the other spark plugs but she's running great again!
