Oil on valve cover....

It seems I have a oil leak. Every time I have popped the hood the last few days I find a puddle of oil on top of the driver's side valve cover. I wiped it off at first thinking I spilled some oil, but every time I drive the car it returns.
Its the valve cover gasket that's the problem right? If so, is the valve cover held on by just the four torx bolts on the top of the cover, or are there others as well?
Thanks for your time and help, Josh.

On top of the valve cover? I would also look at the PCV, Breather and Fill cap.
