Default leaking slight oil from Valve Cover

As the tittle says it looks like if someone spit oil down to the headers heat shield and everything else around it (Just very minimal nothing exagerating). My question is can I just pour in a Oil Leak sealer? Also why does this happen, why does the valve cover gasket get shot? Its my DD with some spirited driving, I'm to the point where I just want to rid of my car, changing the gaskets was a hastle last time I did em.
