[Fot] Valve cover gasket sealant

[Doug Mitchell]

Thanks for all the suggestions. It turns out that it was supplied through
Little British Car Co./Moss, and it is a Gasket Innovations gasket. Picked
it up as well as some Permatex gasket sealant this morning, and am now
waiting the suggested 24 hours.

Regards,
Doug Mitchell
