I haven't seen a neoprene valve cover gasket in 20 years. Do they still make them?

Let us know if you end up getting a rubber (not cork) valve cover gasket with that set.

It is not rubberized, but it feels different than the cork ones I have as well.

Cork gaskets feel "dry" to me, this one has a grippy feeling similar to dried RTV.

The "Real Gasket" works fine the first time around. But when it's time for a valve adjustment you'll have to replace it as it will no longer fit.
This one has only seen maybe 5 hours of run time and it grew almost an inch.
