Cool Cam covers

On these engines the cam cover forms one half of the bearing for the cams. If you have a leak from the covers it could be a number of things. Spark plug tubes, they have seals, end caps (green) for the cams, seal on the cam solenoid, cam cover to head seal needs cleaning and resealing. Have a look at these areas. Try and clean the outside as much as possible, then you may find were the leak is coming from because you don't say in your post.
