Oil around 2 spark plugs?

[Hawk Tuah]

Well. Ignoring all the other posts, my first diagnosis would be to replace the O-rings.

Just to confirm, 9/10 times this will simply be rocker cover gasket gone, simple to replace.

Had it on mine, 1 & 4 were clean, 2 & 3 were oil covered. Changed rocker cover gasket, left it for a few weeks, checked them, clean as a whistle.

It's definately NOT a cracked block

Rubbish mate, it could be anything. There could be a rod through the side of the block for all you know and it's spewing oil all over the top. Is there any mayo in that oil he's got. Bet it's hgf

Quality, got to love internet responses. Cracked block

I've got the same car (ST205) and it's a VERY common fault.

As he's said it's oil on those plugs only, and then engine runs fine I doubt there is a rod sticking out the side of a block.

The ST205 has a 1.6mm steel HG so chances of it being HGF are again so slim it's not worth mentioning, I don't think there has ever been one recorded instance of HGF on the GT4OC, most of the time piston rings or ringlands fail long before the HG ever would.

The ST205 DOES crack blocks for fun. I misread the OP and assumed that the oil was not just pooling around the spark plugs.

My ST205 block cracked - 2" down the 2/3 wall. How did I know? It overheated twice in 6 months for about 10 seconds at a time each time, not *really* something that points to a crack in most other cars

No oil though in your case?
