I noticed yesterday from playing with the Jeep that my valve cover is leaking oil towards the back of the motor. Considering I never took the cover off any motor before, all I need to get is a seal for it, remove the cover and old seal and then just install the new one right???

I would just torque the bolts down a bit and wipe up the oil. It is a common issue, but doesn't leak enough oil for it to matter. It's a lot of work for a leak that is barely noticable. YOu have to move all the stuff out of the way, which is the biggest PITA. Unless you use RTV it will leak again.

check the factory specs for the torque on those bolts, and make sure all the bolts are torqued that much...if it doesnt leak that much, dont worry about it...otherwise if it bothers you that much...replace the gasket or mickey mouse some shiz
