Uh oh, not good. Better pull the rocker arm covers off. You'll probably find clogged oil return passages. Inoperative PCV system or lack of regular oil changes may have something to do with it.

If the plugs have oil on them, it's burning oil. You may not see it out the tail pipe...yet, but it's burning oil

Edit: If the oil returns are restricted, the oil can rise above the valve stem seals, run down the valve stem and into the combustion chamber where the spark plug burns it off. Either that or you have piston ring or valve stem seal problems only on one bank... not likely.

How does the EGR valve look? If it is open constant it could be part of your problem. I've run into issues with them in the past. But they show up at an idle as well as when running.

Did you actually pull the valve covers like the captain suggested? It could still be clogged oil passages. I'm having the same issue and have replaced everything possible other than the crank sensor and the speed sensor. Before I spend anymore money, I'm also trying to diagnose the issue. This surging thing sucks! I feel your pain! Mine idles fine until it reaches operating temp. I'm also wondering if it could be a ecm issue at this point. Those are my rabbit trails...
