I do have a couple oil leaks and I am guessing the biggest leak is the valve cover gaskets. I am also looking to check and/or replace the non return valves on both sides while I am in there. Also, checked the spark plugs last night and from the look of it I am suspecting they have never been changed. (200k miles) Lastly, the connectors for the valvetronics were dirty so I will clean those.

If I have any luck I will repost my findings.
Cool, here is a thread with a great video for the valve cover gasket
Good luck...
