Default 1999 A8 oil leak ?

Is there a common oil leak on these cars near the rear of passenger side valve cover? Oil drips on exhaust manifold. Just wanted some info before I would go changing the valve cover gasket. Thanks in advance.

Right rear cam cover seal. Smoke would come out of the right front wheel well, and from under the air intake pipe. Replaced the seal a week ago, and no more smoke. Do a search for the procedure, it is very easy. The part number is 077103487A, and the torx nuts are T-30.
