As I understand it, you pulled off the DI cassette, looked down at the top of the cylinder head, and there was oil pooled around the spark plugs. I would think the only two sources would be the DI cassette itself, or the valve cover gasket. You can test the DI cassette by installing plugs in them, grounding the threads of each plug, and looking for spark while cranking. You'll want to first pull the relay for the fuel pump, of course.
Alternatively, try to start with a known good DI cassette, if you can find one. Have you been through Ari's no start guide yet?
