A valve cover gasket sits between the valve cover and the cylinder head. It helps keep oil in and dirt out of the top of the engine. Signs this part may need replacing include oil seeping from the edge of the valve cover, oily residue on the cylinder head, or a burning-oil smell if oil reaches hot exhaust components. If a leaking valve cover gasket is the source, this gasket replaces it. Confirm where the leak is coming from before replacing, since other nearby seals can also leak.
