Green car :-)

There is oil on one spark plug -- the rearmost plug (at firewall). Perfect compression in all cylinders, according to the mechanic. Would that be a "valve seal"? I tried searching for that, but search doesn't seem to be working at all. I probably sent myself a post on this, before I accidentally deleted all my emails...

I'm gonna bite the bullet and let these guys across the road put a new timing belt and a new valve cover gasket on it. Maybe I should let them put a new valve seal there, too? How involved is that?
