I believe you have to remove your valve cover to replace the seals he's talking about. You can get a set of new seals, or a set that includes the valve cover gasket as well. This would be your best bet, replace it all together so it buttons up nice and tight and you don't have to wonder when the next gasket (in that area) will go.
