Does the AC have an oil gasket?

Hi,
I'm in the middle of changing my alternator but have noticed quite a few oil leaks. I have pressurised leaks and gravity leaks. I have oil drops from both sides of the engine. Having felt around the valve cover gaskets, they are both wet in varying areas all around. My question is, would these leak with the engine off? The car has been stood for a week and yet I'm still getting drops? I'd of thought the valve cover gaskets wouldn't continue to leak if it's parked up which makes me think I have another leak, it appears to be coming from around where the AC unit is, I get a lot of drops from the tensioner on the U.S. passenger side.. That's where most of the oil is coming from...car is a 4.4v8 2003.
