Is that just murky water? it almost looks like solidified and cooled bacon grease.

Suck out with shop vac, or blow air through until evaporated. looks like there is no oil, so I would not say valve cover is a problem.

Get new plugs and wires. also check the status of the plugs to see if they show any evidence of un-normal combustion.

I am not sure on the though of the dielectric grease that they try to up sell you at the parts counter, but that should provide some further isolation of the sparkplug to wire contact.
