HI folks.
I have a 1997 jaguar xj6l in Kansas with what I believe is a bad valve cover gasket. Visible oil leak around entire cover, badly caked and burned at the very front.

I have found the part online (nbc2525aa) for around 30-50 bucks. I was wondering if anyone knew where to find the 13 o ring gaskets for the bolts and what other items (spark plug gaskets, specific tube of sealant?) I will need to tackle this job. I have read some vague guides for this project but Can't seem to find one for this year and model.

Thanks in advance, these forums have helped with lots of other projects but first post here.

I did mine about three months ago. Be sure to use a torque wrench on the bolts. Also, I used Right Stuff sealant on the valve cover gasket. No signs of leakage at all.
