Which motor do you have Amad. The pushrod motors do have a bit of valve noise do to necessary clearance. As far as an oil leak, it's not uncommon for an older seal at the valve cover to leak if it's been pulled and not replaced with a new one, but if a new motor is leaking, then it's possible that the cover bolts have loosened or the seal was not properly set at the factory.
