RE: Preventing oil leaks

I use the rubber valve cover gaskets and don't have any problems like I do with the cork ones. Cork or any form of it combined with other materials are somewhat porous which is why you see the oil seeping around cork valve cover gaskets. The rubber ones are not all the same. You can get some junk thats for sure. I have used Fel Pro and can't give them a bad rating. This is from my personal experience. If for some reason you need to take the valve covers off several times during some engine adjusting and checking you can absolutely forget about cork gaskets.
