Default Rocker Gasket

Hi i've tried the search engine and got nowhere fast, bring back the old search engine....
I have a leaking drivers side rocker cover gasket on my MY98, is it as easy as cambelt cover off then remove the rocker cover clean up, fix up new gasket with sealant and back together.

Any advice or picture would be appreciated

Cheers

Even easier than that, no need to take the cambelt cover off. You may need to swing some air con hoses out of the way to slide the cam cover off.

The only bolts partially hidden by the Inner timing cover are the front cam cap bolts - no need to touch these when removing the cam cover.
MY98 should have 6 cam cover bolts holding it on.

Are you absolutely certain it's the rocker cover and not just the breather hose on top of the head..? It has a habbit of going brittle and loose due to heat from turbo/up-pipe..!
