this has came up here before....i don't think the answer given was ever proven wrong....it is actually your valve cover gasket.....certainly easier to check out first.

yes, the valve cover is leaking oil and it's going down injector hole, then oozes out once it warms up. there is no oil around the injector. Now if fuel was leaking, then it could be the injector itself or the line.

besure to clean out between the valve cover and the intake manifold, a lot of built up dirt that will fall into the engine.
