there seems to be a bit of oil coming out of the middle bolt on the top of my valve cover, would that mean my valve cover gasket needs to be changed or would it be something else?
IS it tight? Check but dont strip it cause the head is made of Aluminum.
It’s tight
It’s the gasket. Only real reason why oil would be leaking. There is also a gromet around the bolt area, that there? Either way, the gasket goes around that too, so it looks like that is leaking. It’s minor. Takes 2 seconds to change.
