If anyone needs the tool to hold their cams when valve covers (sorry, i can't adapt to calling them head covers) are off, i have the one i created during my engine tear down. It works perfectly.

Drop me a pm with address

There are some very useful comments by JFP on the Spark Plug Tube Seal leakage issue here:

I have recently had to research this issue exhaustively and JFP's comments are to be found no where else that I found.

O ring lube

Be sure and lubricate the new O rings with proper O ring lubricant, not motor oil. Instead of the super expensive Porsche brand lubricant I used Parker Super O ring lubricant.....get a tube and you will be surprised at how often you use it in the shop. oil Changes or any time an O ring is in use
