after replacing both valve cover gaskets and driving the car three days, the under shield appears to be dry ...
I do appreciate the help from everyone and learned to pay more attention to those that know what they know ... final fix was to replace the oil pan gasket and both valve cover gaskets and seal both breathers ... Thank you, Chuck
Thanks for the update and I'm glad that you have it fixed!
