Default Oil in the Spark Plug Tube

I changed my spark plugs a few months ago and there was a large amount of oil in the spark plug tube, plug #3. From my reading it sounds like the gasket it shot, but not sure where to order a gasket kit and what kit should I order? Just the spark plug tube's or the upper gasket kit? I'm actually quite excited to take the engine apart a little.

I'll have to search for that as I don't really have a clue what would be involved. Any special tools I'd need to adjust/check?

To check for cracked retainers..... not really. To adjust the valve you will need some feeler gauges and some basic hand tools.
