My car was recently broken into and for some odd reason the hooligans stole the ignition coils. Replacing the ignition coils isn't really a problem but now there is a lot of oil all over the top of the engine where the coils and spark plugs sit. I was wondering if you might know where the oil (probably) came from and if I should be super worried about it or just clean it up and install the coils.

Can you upload a pic of the oil leak? As far as concern, clean it up and see if it happens again. Always make sure the engine oil stays full so no further damage is done to the vehicle. Did this problem just happen since the damage was done?
