I have done replacing my valve cover gaskets a week ago.
In comparison to other engines, I think that BMW is wrong to paint the underside of valve cover, or applied paint on inside surface of engine.
The original paint deteriorated and made a big mess.
I had the cover sand blasted and painted on outer surface only.
