Have you tried using UV dye to find the source of the leak? Of course leaking oil and burning oil are different problems. It's quite possible you have some internal engine problems aside from the oil leak.

Also in the future, please use the title line for a short description of your topic, not all the details. Thanks.

If oil is getting onto coils and the outside of spark plugs you have, at a minimum, a valve cover gasket leak. If the coils are soaked in oil that may be causing the misfires. There may be other leaks as well.
