About to change my valve cover gasket this weekend. Never done one on a 5S, just wondering if I should keep an eye out for any surprises, anything special I'd have to do or if it's pretty straight forward like most other engines?

i believe those rings are a 30mm. there are four of them. one for each cylinder. use a socket as opposed to a wrench. it is a pretty straight forward deal.
