Default blacktop rocker cover problem

my black top zetec keeps leaking oil from the rocker cover.
i took cover off and cleaned it up and mastic'd it up and it started leaking after a couple of weeks.
so i got another rocker cover and a new gasket and guess what, its leaking again!
i have heard this can be a problem with them so i am thinking of swapping to a silvertop rocker cover and gasket.
has anyone done this on here? i just wondered how the black top cam belt cover will fit over the silvertop rocker, i think there will be a gap?????
