    Found a bit of oil in a spark plug well last fall when I was doing a plug job, and it looks like it's time to do the Valve cover gaskets and plug plug well gaskets. The intake manifold on the passenger side is gonna make it a giant pain in the ass it looks like, but wanted to see what I was really in for with this job.

    What do you guys think? How many DIY hours? And difficulty of job?

    Few hours. Pretty easy and pull the old seals out with flat screwdriver. Fel-pro gasket kit from rock auto comes with everything except 2 flat washers.
