Make sure you only tighten the cover to 8nm when you replace it,otherwise it will warp/crack/leak again. :y

That's exactly what happend  :-[ :-[  if I use torq wrench (sitting in toolbox btw) I would notice wire trapped between cover and head. just slightly catch on the cam pulley site but enough to brake cover in a week time.
Now I stuck with  plenum and all rest  in the boot waiting for new cover.  :'( . Thanks God nobody been interested in my pug306 so far so still have some wheels.

ps. Thanks Jimbob :y

I have a pair of them from a 2.6 cdx, I think they are the same, but not 100%. Only other problem is distance, but I can post, although not sure if I trust Royal Fail or Parcel Farce.

They are different, the 2.6 has larger holes for the coil packs
