My valve cover pan gasket continues to function well
for seven years now. Its the old thick cork type and I
sealed it to the head, but not to the pan!! The pan is then 
easily removed without destroying the gasket and have
never found any leakage. I adjust the valves frequently
to assure they are set at exactly .018. You may want to
try this and save a lot future scrapping and mess??
