Default lower valve seal question

hate to ask but can somebody post an illustarted pic of the head for 1.5 or 1.6 (sohc) I need to know how to put new valve seals back in. Or if somebody can point me in the right direction as far as which manual would have it as far as haynes, chilton, or helms. I replaced the valve cover gasket with new spark plug seals and I'm still getting oil in the plug cylinders. I was thinking it was the valve seals needing replaced. The manual I have is junk. or if somebody can tell me where the seals are located that would be great to. thanks

you have to take out the springs and retainers. I know you leave the head onfor new seals, but if you want new valves you have to pull the head. BUt then again some things are better left to the professionals. Cause then you have to readjust the valves with a feeler gauge, and if you dont know how to do that ur done for.h:
