Any ideas/suggestions? 22K miles on the car still under warranty.

Thanks in advance.

I have attached a couple of pics- one is the general location, and the other 2 are close ups.
yep, those are the valve covers.. take off your engine cover and you'll be able to see it.. chances are they are leaking on both sides..several others including myself have had this issue.. fixed under warranty..
