My driver's side VCT sensor oil seal has a tear and is blowing oil onto the valve cover. Does anyone know if the seal alone is replaceable or if the entire cover and seal must be replaced? I powdercoated my covers so it would be a shame to purchase a new valve cover intending to only use the VCT sensor oil seal. Thanks for the help!
