If you marked the covering with the marker, you can use acetone to remove it. I would try alcohol first though. If it is on the wood, I am not sure.

Ditto on the denatured alcohol. Put some on a q-tip and rub in a circular motion it should come right off covering.

I always use a sharpee permanent marker to mark things on the plane! That way it does'nt come off until I want it to. Dont beat yourself up over it!

Nothing is permanent. I use iso alcohol or acetone, like others have suggested. Works great on ball point pen too. If you ever get into building with coroplast, stay away from permanent markers, you really have to scrub to get those off of coro.
