I got some sort if oil leak or something there oil where my sparks plugs are and I got a oil light when I'm on accessory but not while driving it anything
 
Well is oil leaking on the top of the spark plug where the spark plug wires go into , or into the combustion chamber?
If its the top of the plug you probably need to replace your valve cover seal?
Im taking a guess but I believe we also need more info. Maybe Pictures?

Change your valve cover gasket.
and I got a oil light when I'm on accessory but not while driving it anything
....because the engine isn't running.

well i notice it when i was changing plug but it was only on 2 and 4 but thanks i' change it in the morning
 
Be more specific, there's oil on your plugs when you changed them or the top of the valve cover there is oil collected? If oil is collecting onto your valve cover where your plugs are try replacing your oil cap, the O ring could be shot and seeping so all the oil collects where your plugs are. If it's on your plugs themselves could be valve guide seals or piston rings. Could also be seaping through valve cover bolt, if they were overtightened could have cracked the valve cover, it's not hard to do. Just start small and work your way up. If you replace your oil cap make sure it's OEM. Check compression while your at it as well.
