[s-cars] Valve Cover Gasket

[Jack Gagnon]

A few tips,

Don't forget the center bolts, you need to use a socket to get them off ,
two I think.

I think the gasket goes over the top of the camshaft sprocket. It is all
very obvious when you remove the cover.  The half moons fill in a hole on
the back side of the cover near the firewall.  It looks like the hole was
once used for a distributor  in older designs.  Use a few very small dabs of
silicone sealant around the moons and other seams to make sure you have no
leaks.

What is required to be removed to replace the valve cover gasket?  I am
looking at the gasket now and trying to figure out how the camshaft sprocket
is sealed where it exits the valve cover.  Also, is this where the 2 blue
"half moons" go?  It appears as though there is a large half moon shaped
piece in the gasket itself as well.  Thanks.
