Thanks! Apparently, the odor was coming from burn-off from a leak in the valve cover gasket, caused by a build-up of pressure from the faulty PCV valve. So unfortunately, it looks like the whole cover will need to be replaced. Well, it is still costing me way less to maintain this car than the monthly cost of buying a new one. Besides which, as many have posted on this forum, there is really nothing out there that appeals to us true F22-3 fanatics.
