I hope i read this correctly
I don't believe you fully understood the previous post. The torque values for the 2 different screw sizes are different. The M5 screws that only hold the breather covers to the valve covers are torqued to 4 ft-lbs +/- 0.5 ft-lbs. The valve cover screws are torqued to 7.0 - 7.4 ft-lbs, including the ones that pass thru the crankcase breather covers.

Look over the attached file for clarification.
