Ford Motorsports Valve Covers

Thanks, as I was thinking of trying a little RTV on the acorn nut washers, and see what happens as a simple solution first. But just want to be clear I am only talking about a slight leak on a couple of the acorns, and not the valve cover gasket itself. Probably a good time to get me a small torque wrench and get the acorns on the right torque too. Probably the normal Joe wouldn't even notice the leak, but anal me sees that type of stuff...my therapist knows
