ok, you have a good start on the fix for this. yes, gently bend the tabs on the collector and remove the lid. clean well with brake spray/rag/brush, and dry. apply some ultra black RTV on the lid and reinstall. the siphon hose that's on the lid, needs to be cleaned and put back and be sure and use some ULTRA black RTV on it too. then on the elbow on the valve cover do the same, clean it well on both ends, and coat the male parts VC/Plastic tubes of the joints with UB RTV. let it cure overnight. VOILA! no more oil on the valve cover, and no more oil on the air filter!
