If you dont want it to leak, go Felpro. Get the rubber gasket with the metal rings.

This number is from summitracing.com

Fel-Pro PermaDry Plus Valve Cover GasketsFel-Pro PermaDry Plus Valve Cover Gaskets = FEL-VS13264T

Fel-Pro's PermaDry Plus valve cover gaskets feature precision edge-molded silicone rubber, which resists high heat and delivers reliable sealing on irregular surfaces. This silicone rubber is wrapped around a rigid carrier that adds strength to the gasket, to resist being sucked in under high vacuum or blown out when under pressure. At the same time, it also prevents over-tightening of the mounting bolts. Note, however, that these gaskets are not intended for race applications.

Hope this helps you:thumbsup
