elect. fitting on valve cover

I have a small leak (2000 XK8) on an electric plug on the forward end of the valve cover. My question is what kind of O-ring or gasket seals that and can it be done without removing the valve cover?

Is there a matching "twin" on the right side? Could be the VVT actuator. VVT seal is part# AJ82856. The seal pulls up, you can use a blunt tool like a plastic knife.
