Valve cover problem

I got some 1.6 rockers and poly locks the other day and installed them. Valve covers didn't fit, so I took the baffles out of them and now they fit. The problem now is that they're hollow, oil likes to find its way up the bolt and leak out on the top of the valve cover. Is there anyway to fix this or is there a cheap good valve cover to get that has enough clearance without me having to relocate traction control and all that?
