Default Please can someone advise me valve cover gasket

Help me please someone

I have a Tommy kiara m20b subaru 1995 and the valve cover gasket (drivers side) is leaving oil onto the exhaust grrrr

I purchased a gasket people say it's correct others say it is wrong... I don't want to take it all off and then find out its not right as I don't have an alternative car.

http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm?itemId=151558324344

I did send him my reg number and the guy said this would fit

Anyone have any ideas

Engine codes on this new gasket replacment are EJ16E, EJ20EN and EJ22E for 1.6i 2.0i 2.2i and 2.2

Part number RC1279s

Thanks

Thanks

Dunno what this has to do with engine management or remapping? Or why you bought from a really shit ebay add?

There is nothing on the listing you have linked to say what is included or anything.

I listed the parts that you needed on the thread you started in General Technical

Do it right, do it once.

BTW, what I think you have bought is for twin cam cars, not quad cam turbo cars.....

Put the one you bought from eBay into the bin and take it as a lesson.

Then order this....

And this.....

Trying to do the rocker cover gaskets on the cheap just doesn't work, trust me !!! I've fitted non genuine rocker cover gaskets before only to swap them for genuine parts shortly after.
