There is no rocker cover gasket as such. The cyl head is in 2 parts with the cam cam carrier/cover the top part. These are sealed together with a sealant. It's a major job to remove the carrier/cover requiring timing belt off and special tools to hold cams in place. Where abouts is it leaking and by how much?
