Had to replace the valve cover gasket due to a leak on my neighbor's 2004 BMW 330xi with the 3.0L M54 straight 6. This car has 76k miles on it, and has been doing the recommended 15k mile oil changes before I took over last year doing 6k changes with Castrol 0w40.
I also replaced the valve cover with one off ebay since these plastic ones are known to warp/crack.
New cover installed, mostly back together:
