3rd Generation DIY for VC gasket?
Is there (beyond my knowledge) a DIY for replacing the Valve Cover Gasket? Or can an experienced individual write one up? It would be highly appreciated

well I was looking for a DIY on the gasket, not just the VC itself.

Well, just follow that DIY, but instead of the paint job, replace the gasket.

RTV in the corners and humps. Just a pea sized amount in each corner, spread with your finger.
