I've purchased many plastic valve covers in the 20yrs I have owned my CJ7. I have put silicone around the oil cap, made gaskets and more. I finally broke down and purchased an aluminum cover. Runs quieter and little to no mess.

Too bad you went and spent/wasted all that money just to have a leaky valve cover.
I prefer my 'dry' plastic one. It only has the two center nuts holding it on too.
