The small one is usually easier. Break the seal with a pic/screwdriver first then pull it off.

Good work! After you have removed all the rocker cover bolts it may still be stuck down. Tap around it with a hammer and it should come loose.

Pesky jones:
Fuel pump off but I dropped the barstewards banjo bolt. I can see it but its going to be a pain to get back. Moving onwards

EDIT : makeshift bolt retriever  :signLOL:

Pesky jones:

Ive got the front of the valve cover free with a little prying with a screwdriver, dont think ive done any damage to the mating surfaces. Ive just got to free the back now... I tried rocking it for a minute or two but left it for now.

Il do the rest tomorrow. Ive just put a glove over the air intake and put a cloth over the fuel pump hole and shut the bonnet so should be good untill tomorrow.

Tomorrow I'm hoping to see either a goosed chain or tensioner, something to explain the engine cutting out/refusing to start.

Will I be able to see the valves once the rocker cover is off? Possibly see some bent valves
