Where are valve cover bolts on 1990 2-litre??

Gentlemen,

Time to change the valve cover gasket on my 1990 with a 2.0-litre. But, but, but - I can't for the life of me find the bolts holding the valve cover on to remove them. Where the heck ARE they??

Thanks.

PS - After a search on this topic on this site, I see I should replace spark plug hole seals at the same time. OK, will do.

The big things that look like nuts that go around each spark plug hole? That's what holds the valve cover on. Big socket...I don't remember the exact measurement...32mm maybe?
