As per title, I am after both valve covers as the mechanic has over tightened them and now they have cracks and leaking oil.

Ended up getting them welded and it seems to hold it ok. Looks a bit rough but its covered up so that's ok!

Mine did the same thing. They are especially weak around the exhaust side.
