Valve Cover bolt - o ring always?

Valve Cover bolt - o ring always?
I had a local mechanic replace my Valve Cover gaskets about a year ago. Since then I've gotten much more comfortable with wrenching on this beast.
I've been getting a 'hot oil' smell and i think the valve covers drip a tiny bit onto the hot exhaust.
There is one accessible bolt - front passenger side. Oil is dripping from there. I removed it and added a small washer and that seemed to help.
My question, there was no o-ring on the bolt i removed - online it seems all the bolts come with o-rings. It that standard? Did mine never have the o-rings?
