Spark plugs have nothing to do with the valve cover leaking. The valve cover is leaking because the valve cover is leaking. Spark plugs do not hold down or secure the valve cover. To the OP, just as a fyi here is a link which you may want to print and show your dealer so that they can change the valve cover gasket. I personally would go to another dealer. Once they play around with me they lose me forever.
