I'm pretty sure I need to replace the gasket on my valve cover, as there is a slight amount of oil on the #2 and #3 spark plug, plus I have a small leak. Is there a how-to on how to do it? I'm gonna try to tackle it this week since I'm off for spring break. This is for a 5S.

I think I'm going to tackle this tomorrow, as I have nothing else to do. Can I just pick up the gasket at the local NAPA. Also, are there choices? Like standard gasket or metal?
