undef.e53 is on a distinguished road
oil on top of ignition coils

i'm on my 2nd VCG in two weeks just got it back from the indy about 48hours ago and am getting smoke from the engine bay. i take off the plastic cover where the smokes coming from and my front 3 ignition coils are COVERED in oil. i clean off the spark plug area made sure it was dry and drove the car around. Not 15 minutes into the drive and it's smoking again checked the same areas and found it in the previous condition. how is this possible? where is it coming from? the plastic cover obviously also has oil can this be the filler cap or is it possible somehow some way it's the VCG again? any ideas?

3.0L engine btw
