Default how difficult - 98 cobra valve cover seals

I need to replace the spark plug tube seals on my 98 cobra . 2 of them are leaking oil onto to plugs .
Has anyone changed the valve cover seals on this motor and how difficult was it ?

Its a real Pain in the A$$ to change the valve cover seals I had to remove the engine mounts and jack each side up just to get them out and then it leaked oil out the back until the fourth time i put it back together.
