You posted this in the wrong section; I'll move it.

Your post isn't easy to understand... What snapped? What's too long? The cable, the boots?

The oil is typically due to leaking valve covers due to loose screws, old seals or both. Do not over tighten the valve cover screws; Only 22 INCH lbs, not 22ft lbs! If you over do it you can crush the gasket or warp the valve cover.
