ok, valve cover gaskets for 6.5. Can they be done easily?

Do it right. Pry off the covers and clean the heads.

Plan on replacing the valve covers as they likely will not come off easily.

Supposedly, ACDelco makes a blue gasket that works as a compliment to The Right Stuff. Have read where most just use The Right Stuff.
 
Make sure they are still tight first. I know mine were leaking, and when I went to pull them, they were all loose. Tightened them all up, and they barely seeped afterwards.
 
Fix the valve covers and find out what else is leaking. :rolleyes: Is it leaking bad enough to justify pulling the intake, turbo, and injection lines to get there? May as well freshen up the injectors while you are at it...
