Great job!
Did you replace the 6 rubber washers around the covers as well?
Those harden up over time due to the constant heat they are under, and eventually leak.

now that the covers and the gasket mate area is so clean, you'll be able to easily see that your cam seals are leaking

The grommets usually are the culprits for valve cover oil leaks.
