Pull the cam cover, and scrupulously clean the mating surfaces, apply a minuscule bead of the correct sealant (not Permatex), reseat the cover and correctly torque the cover bolts, reinstall everything you removed.

Not difficult, but a lot of time spent, and we would automatically put new plug tubes and seals in engine's that use them.
JFP - oops, I said Permatex by mistake. I used Loctite 5900
