+1  agreed  . .  almost certainly cam cover ..    Only use genuine GM  gaskets ,o rings & black sealant . 8nm torque is critical . . absolutley no more  ;)

See maintenance guide for how it's done .... follow to the letter & you won't go wrong  :y :y

Andy c at Bury St Edmunds Vauxhall  will give you a good deal on the parts. Look under Recommended suppliers on here to find his contact details   :y :y
