Tom - try putting "leaking rocker cover" into the Search option at the top of this page. smile

You will be able to see the replies and choose your scenario.

It may well be that your gasket isn't leaking, especially if it's only weeping above the exhaust port - in which case it may be the rubber bung (cheaper repair)

 If the rocker cover is leaking then maybe you could use a little gasket goo around the gasket? If doing this make sure the half moon shapes are smeared well as this is where they tend to leak from. If fitting a new gasket a smear of gasket goo is needed in the corners of the moon shapes.

As Martyn said it could just be the de-compression plug though.
