Had both mine replaced a while back . Apparently its the passenger side thats very tight. I had to have the engine out but also replaced the clutch at same time.

dont need engine out mate its normally the rings around the bolts that leak not the actual gasket ... jase at scooby bits will do a great job . the passenger side is the easier of the two actually or the one i would rather do anyway

Yes, Just remove and replace all the bits, halfmoon seals, gasket, spark plug gasket and seals for all the bolts. Make sure you get the correct cross section of the main gasket,my model 98 has a possibilty of two types and subaru couldn't tell from the chassis number which exact type was on the car. I bought both types and returned the incorrect one. Need gasket sealer too.
