Getting the valve cover back on was surprisingly easy, the adhesive made the gasket stay on just fine and I checked it with a mirror and all looks good.

About 30 mins driving and the mating surfaces look clean so I think the leak is solved, still some residual oil burning off that I couldn't wipe up that I'll have to deal with, and a little fuel smell, but that's probably residual as nothing seems to be leaking from the lines and considering the pressure they are under I think I would notice it!

Feel free to ask me any questions or for any advice!
Undertaking this project next week. Would appreciate any F22 tips as all the videos online are showing the replacement on different models. Thanks!
