Default Oil On Spark Plug Boot #1

Hello,
I have a 2011 LTZ Surburban 4X4. Having an issue with oil acuminating on the boot of the #1 Spark Plug Boot. I thought it was coming from the valve cover gasket as it was the older type. I purchased the remade version and now it is tight and dry but the oil persists. I was originally alerted to the problem by a mis fire code. I am not having mis fires but still the oil is there after a good cleaning. Cover is dry. Can't seem to see where its coming from. Any ideas where to look on this model?
Many thanks!
