oil leaking: yes the valve cover gaskets do go bad. look under the hood and check to see if there is any oil leaking out of the covers and running down the side of the engine.

turning problem: does it "click" when you turn the steering wheel all the way the left or does it do it no matter how far u turn it?

Well all the way to the left starts the clicking, while making a left turn does the same, but then again I turned pretty much all the way to the left...
