How is the emission system on your car?

Can it pass the rubber glove test? Hold a rubber glove over the hole where you top up the oil. It should not inflate.

You might try taping several layers of cheese cloth or gauze in place of the oil fill cap. See if this helps the distributor cap problem or if the fabric has a lot of oil on it.

I think that some kind of fluid is getting into the distributor cap.
