I fear the problem is not the valve gasket. I'd tightened the valve cover, but it's still leaking. I drove 45 minutes to the header shop today to adjust the exhaust (hit the new cross member). Lots of oil coming out. UP on the lift, you could see some RTV that had come out of the very front of the pan. There was oil drips coming from the front pulley, which would be really hard to get there from the valve cover.
After you look at the pictures, what do you think? Easiest way to fix that? raise the engine and drop the pan? Remove the balancer and cover from front? Squeeze a glob of RTV in the seam and hope for the best?
Here's the RTV that's come out of the front.
Here's from the front, you can see the line of RTV that was used.
Finally is a quick video of below the car.
