First post. Valve cover gasket which led to a fuel injector o ring blow out.

Next will be finishing the rest of the oil leak issue. It seems to be coming from around the oil filter...

Changed to oil to full synthetic looks like previous owners had traditional. I’ve heard this can cause the leakage.

Rust scares off a lot of buyers and unfortunately the only work around is to lower the price to a point you start getting interest. You can buy replacement metal arches but the time and labor to cut out the old arch, weld in the new arch and then paint is not worth it for the majority of buyers. That rubber trim piece around the arch is the worst design as it traps moisture.

You think best option is to remove the rubber trim and prevent the rust? Or is that something you can just clean out occasionally?
