Default 1992 Honda Accord Leaking Oil Near Number One Spark Plug

I just replaced all gaskets, including the o-rings under the rocker assembly, but I am still getting an oil leak near the intake side of the number one spark plug (see below). Any ideas?

Maybe, a tiny dab of sealant where the valve cover gasket goes from flat to curved (over the cam) that corner?

Also,
-check to make sure the valve cover gasket didn't get folded some how. (I had that happen once. Use a thin feeler gauge right where the oil appears to be leaking.)
-all four acorn bolts holding down the valve cover are torqued correctly?

take care,
ChrisS
