Changing my Valve Cover What Gaskets do I need?

I got the Vavle Cover Gasket, and the Spark Plug Seals/Rings, what else do I need? I am replacing a camseal, so I’m just making sure I got everything

One of the gasket sealants from Permatex wouldn’t hurt.

hondabond?

hondabond = Ultra Grey

I personally use Ultra Copper.

but both work good.

you could also change up the cam seals (on the cam gear side) if they’re deteriorated, and the valve cover grommets. i don’t have any hondabond on any of those gaskets–just apply a small amount of oil around the seals first, and torque down to specs. you should not have any leaks. i’ve been running like this with no problems whatsoever.
