You should just do the repair the proper way by removing the valve covers and replacing with the timing and valve cover gaskets. You need to do it the properly so that you do not encounter the same problems that X5only encountered and risk destroying a gasket. I have to ask why did you do the valve cover gaskets 3 months ago and not address the timing covers at the same time?
