1986 Ranger Spark Plug

I was checking my spark plugs on my 86 ranger and noticed the plugs where covered in oil. So the plan is to change the valve cover gasket. So my question is do they also have spark plug tube seals? (Or orings as some call them) if so how do I know which ones to get? Are they all just a standard size across the auto world ? It looks like normally they come with the valve cover gaskets on other vehicles but I can't find them anywhere for a 86 ranger . Let me know what you guys think...

If the plugs are oil covered, the oil came from leaking valve cover gaskets. There is no type of o-ring that is associated with the plugs. The spark plug wire grommets seal the wire to the plug, keeping out moisture and other stuff like leaking oil.,.
