Valve cover leak

[Victorusmc]

My cap says 5w-50.

Thank you for that! I reached out to the place I was buying them from and they said it was a typo but then a saw they are cheaper in Levitown parts so I just ordered them.

I think I want to keep them bare aluminum for better heat dissipation, I love how yours look but I am always looking to maximize performance and I know our engines get really Hot! Do you think the powder coating makes a lot of difference in heat dissipation or maybe its negligible?

Thanks

Mine are painted with automotive paint. I have not seen any increase with temps.

For those interested I found a place on etsy that can make engine build date stickers to install on aluminum cam covers. Will see how they hold up to a few heat cycles.
