Thanks for the responses! Well yes I think I'm talking about the side
cover gaskets, but I'm not sure, since the dealer called them engine
head side covers. I haven't been able to see for sure where the leak
is coming from, I know it's not the drain plug and I am pretty sure
it's not the filter. There is gunk beneath both side valve covers,
but haven't pin-pointed a drip. Looking at the Haynes book for this
model engine, the description for changing the gaskets seems fairly
easy, although I would have to buy a torque wrench to do things
'right'. I can't see much in the way of the bolts on these covers, so
why 3 hours of labor ? I will probably call and ask them, it's just
not making sense.
