Spark plugs covered in oil - how screwed am I?

Install new plugs, remove crush rings if they have them on heads with tubes. NGK3459/ZFR5N is a good plug for these. Any seals that are hard must be replaced. They are no longer seals but leakers.
I hear tht a good source for info on these is @slantsixdan
Thank you very much for your informations! I'm gonna see if i can get these plugs asap. But a question: Why do I have to remove the rings?
