I don't think you have a head gasket issue. It's most likely the spark plug tube seals. You can get a new valve cover gasket witht the spark plug tube seals from Pelican Parts online. Here is the link. Pelican Parts - BMW Parts and Accessories Catalog
This is an easy job you can do yourself. My valve cover gasket started leaking at about 75,000 miles.
