id get a mechanic on to look a it i dont know if yours has one or two valvs?
i know of the one in the timing case i think? not 100%

my old 60seires cruiser has 2 very cheap to replace one was in the timming case and ther other on the oil filter housing on the sid eof the motor or where the filter screws 2

the rocker cover is bolted through the center and over time they bend in and you cant get enough tensoin on the outer rubber gasket, so what you do is remove it, turn it upside down and pop the center back out!. hope this helps, Land-e
