if ur changing oil + filter , change the rocker cover gasket while ur at it!

i dont really no vl's...but y would ya need to change the rocker/valve cover gasket, that wouldnt be making the lifter noise, yes if you can see it leakin then yeh checkd it and if it farkd then change it, but if ya dont have to change it then y should u go 2 all the trouble?
