WIS document LI01.30-P-048997 m273 oil sepage

Is there a recall for this? I have a 2007 clk550 and thought that my valve cover was leaking oil but it looks like there is a recall. I was in the process of removing it when I cam across this article.

I have to put it back together and take it to the dealer.

Please confirm and I am surprised that its not dimensioned on this site.

I just took mine into the dealer today for this exact thing. Not the recall but the seepage I will let you know what they find.

The parts are cheap $15 and it should take 20 min to put them in. Too bad I spent so much time trying to remove the valve cover. Now I have to put it back and I do not know the torque for valve cover bolts.
