At a guess...leaking cam cover gaskets...causing oil in the oil wells shorting out the plugs in question...if left to long then the leads and ultimately dispack may have been affected...but start from the beginning...

Do a paperclip test, if that shows nothing, then suspect HT side (DIS, leads, plugs).

Additionally, check plug wells for oil, and the intake system for leaks...
