Do you mean the valve stem seals? I definitely wouldn't jump to THAT conclusion. Were the threads of the sparkplug coated with oil also? If so, it's not your valve stem seals that leaked, it's your plug well seals that have leaked. You have to really really really clean out the wells before you pull the plugs out.
