Check the two short upper bolts that secure the timing cover to the block,I find these have a tendency to come loose over time and allow oil to get past the gasket, not sure why but often wonder if its a combo of fuel pump eccentric & pump vibration. A 'nordlock' washer on each should prevent it if this is the problem.
