As far as I know the airfilters were all the same,but Im willing to be corrected.
Camcovers dont usually warp,but if they have been seriously overtightened its possible.Did you tighten them to 8nm ?
Which engine is in your car by the way ?

It's the 3.0

And they were torqued to bang on, my torque wrench only went down to about 30 so I brought one specially 

And sealant used where directed.

Update; I think it's all good now, the whole thing with me assuming my rocker cover was still leaking I think was me jumping the gun- I was still getting the smell of burning oil after arriving at the destination. It only happened a couple of times- I haven't had the smell for the last few days- so I'm thinking maybe oil was puddled up somewhere from when it WAS leaking, and I was initially getting that sloshing out and burning off during cornering/ braking etc.

Is that feesable? All now seems good on the cambelt and gasket front

Did you get the fan working?  Is the temperature gauge working?
