I have a few tips as of right now from researching and asking around FWIW

-remove the oil cap and use that hole to gain leverage to remove the valve cover.

-use a spray adhesive to tack the gasket down so it won't move when installing. I'm just using some light loctite general spray adhesive. Something that doesn't clump and is thin, just mask the channel and spray inside. I don't plan on spraying the entire thing, just the 4 corners of the big gasket.

-when removing the two middle strut bolts, pull toward you so you don't smash your windshield with whatever tool you use.
