Default Lynx Rocker Cover Gasket

Anyone changed a rocker cover gasket on a 1.8TDDi/TDCi/TD/Di etc?

Mines got a weep. I've ordered a new gasket but lots of places are showing tubes of sealent for the 'lower rocker cover'.
Is it just a gasket that needs replacing or am I missing something?


Bailes.

Its just a rubber gasket but i would use a dab of silicone where the cam cover/seal goes over the cam shaft cap at the pulley end.
