i think my rocker cover gasket has gone and is causing oil to seap into spark plug holes. just wondering if the cam cover seal in this kit would be good and cheap way to sort this?

The thin black lines in them are the rocker cover gaskets.
If your careful, you could use sealant on the gasket, along the bottom that goes onto the head (Most likly where its leaking)

yeah, knew that  but thought for the money i could just use the rocker gasket in the kit. ive noticed rocker gasket alone for £15, but as this is £5 cheaper just wondering if its worth a try or should i just get the £15 one that comes on its own?? neither are gen vaux so doubt it would matter which?

The gapping on the plugs may be different between the two! But can easily be re-gapped!

cool  think the plugs could do with being changed anyways specially after being drenched in oil and got a pretty much new set of c20let plugs in the garage i might aswell use
