in automotiverebuild and repair the torque on any cork or rubber gasket is 7 to 14 foot pounds the reason for this is any more pressure will pinch the material and brake it at that point if the problem is leaking valve cover and its in a van its probably not enough air flow across the back of the engine fixed mine by using (red) permatex on both sides of gaskets assembling and let sit overnight hope this helps
