Hiyas.
My dad has a '57 235 inline six in his '53 truck.
After the recent fiasco with the rainwater in the engine and thus the oil because of an unsecure valve cover and other things... , dad bought a valve cover gasket for it.
You can read about that adventure here, if you like:

The gasket is of the cork material.
Now, I am just checking in here about the installion. Put cork gasket down on top of the head, put valve cover on top, line up valve cover and gasket with each other and the bolt holes on the head, and then snug it down with the bolts?
Should we use any sealer stuff? Maybe just a dab here and there to stick the gasket onto the valve cover?
Thought I'd ask... I never know what you folks might know.
