probably not your oil ring.. if ur burning oil its probably your valve seals if anything.. oil a head gasket.. oil in the spark plug holes is probably bad tube seals wich causes oil to leak down onto the plugs soaking them in oil...

i fricken know what you ment.. and my diagnosis stays the same.. oil can get down the threads and not only that but when you pull it out or unthread it the oil will leak down in their..
