Yes, you have three green seals that sit between the head and the inside of the cam cover:


Also, as a precaution I decided to replace the o-rings on both cam actuators and used the sealant sold by Pelican for the cam cover, and so far (after +/- 1,000K) have not got any more leaks :-)

However, I lowered the engine a few inches for the cam cover to clear the frame.

I can search the P/N's for the seals I replaced if you need them.

Good luck!

PS: the two other holes on the left side are where the variocam actuators go
