Default Help please

So I have decided to keep her and do all of her jobs and get her painted.

Wondering if someone can help me, I am looking for a gasket I will explain where it is. (Please forgive me)

If your looking at the car from the front into the engine bay just to the left (so drivers side) on the left of the engine there the gap if you look down there there is a gasket leaking oil on my exhaust... So it's stinking when the exhaust is hot causing smoke too

1995 Subaru TK

Is this called a valve cover gasket? I just need to purchase the items ready for them to be fitted but don't want to buy the wrong ones

Thanks

It would also be wise to change the half moon rubber seals too

That's for a newage Steve, and for the wrong cylinder head.

These are the parts needed on an early classic.
