Hi I have just had to have new spark plugs & coil packs fitted & the garage have said that there is oil on one of the plugs & I will need to get my rocker cover gasket replaced is this the only way to cure this problem or is there a product you can pour into the engine that will seal the leak, if not what sort of price should I be expecting to pay to replace the gasket just so I know I am not getting ripped off. Thanks In Advance.

If no oil has been spilt at some point and went into the engine ,then yes you will need a new gasket,would expect half hour labour charge or there about,s to replace it,suppose you could call it an hour by the time it,s tested and verified as fixed.

Unfortunately there is no rocker gasket as such.
On your engine, the rocker cover is actually the cam cover which also holds the camshafts in place. It uses sealant rather than a gasket.
You would also need to remove the timing belt to do it which opens up a whole new can of worms. "
