If you've an oil leak, i think you should replace the gasket lol.
By the sounds of it it's the rocker cover gasket. And I'm not sure about your engine, but with mine, the headbolts holt the rocker cover box to the head, and also hold the head to the block. So tightening one is a no-no. You'd need new headbolts and a gasket, and a torque wrench for re-doing the headbolts. That is, if your headbolts hold down the rockercover gasket.
If they're seperate, then you're elected, just undo the bolts, get a new gasket, clean the top of the head/bottom of the rocker cover [bit that the cams in] and put the gasket in and slap the bolts back in.
