before you tear into a cam cover replacement, have you confirmed that it isn't in fact your spark plug tubes that are leaking (a common problem)? also, have you re-torqued the cam cover bolts (in proper sequence) to see if that stopped the leak? have you assessed how much is actually leaking? it is typically just a drip, so risk of fire is small and most live with it.
otherwise, as per stone, you get on a slippery slope where you should think about updated tensioner pads, etc., while in there.
