Stamped Steel Valve Cover

If the engine has stamped steel valve cover, the
sealing surface must be checked for flatness
prior to reinstallation. Hold the valve cover down firmly
against a flat, level surface or piece of glass, and
check around the entire perimeter that a .012 in.
(.30 mm) feeler gauge cannot be inserted anywhere.
See Figures 10-14. If the gauge goes in anywhere, the
cover needs to be replaced.
