Can someone provide additional advice on:

1. Whether this is something I can DIY and if there is a tutorial or tips on doing it myself? Pictures?
2. Is this something I need to fix quickly? Indy says that the oil may drip on the exhaust and causing smoke / potential fire.

Thank you
It can be done as a DIY, but to remove the cam cover, you will need special tooling to hold the cams (the cover normally does this). You will also need to scrupulously clean the cover and cylinder head mating surfaces, and use a very small bead of Loctite 5900 to create a new seal.
