Black gunk on my bumper

So I have a 1990 rs and I know it has leaks from the valve cover gasket, as well as the gaskets that go around the spark plugs. I'm not sure about the head gasket, but I do know that when I floor the car some white smoke comes out and I get this black stuff on my bumper like it was sprayed with motor oil. Could this be because of the valve and sparkplug gasets, and the oil getting on the spark plugs? Please help. Ohh yea nd it neve over heats or anything, it feels like it runs good.

x2. Thought it was the valve seals. Guess it's the piston rings
