After Redoing the high temp Teflon on the threads and stacking 2 fresh crush washers, the problem was solved. The reason I mentioned it earlier was because I thought for sure it was a valve cover gasket too, but redoing that oil tap fixed it. Before storing the car a few months ago, I'm at about 10,000km with no leaks.
Did yours look something like this basically?
