valve cover gasket

I noticed some oil buildup around the passenger valve cover. For the time being I thought I'll just tighten up the bolts a little since they were loose and then of course I break one of the bolts.

So I guess I have to drill down and use an extraction tool to get the remaining piece out. Any one knows the specs these bolts need to be torqued to? Also any good place to get valve cover gasket from?

Thanks

Well if you only break the bolt not the cover than you can unscrew the other bolts and take that cover off. There is a very good chance you can take that broken bolt out without the need of tools as I broke one on my CLK before lol.
Good luck
