Default valve cover gaskets

Hi all,
I have been having an oil leak from one of my valve covers. I went out and got new gaskets, replaced the leaky side first, which had a rubber gasket (replaced with cork) but the side that is good wont come off. and it still has a cork gasket. I have tried every way i know, and i cant get that valve cover off. Any ideas?

Take a screwdriver and slowly work it off.The gasket is gonna be a pita to get off,so take your time.
