Changing cam cover gaskets look here - http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1152564281

How can you say that without any information on the car except the registration?  If original they may well have gone hard but they may well not be original gaskets/o-rings.  Best advice to the OP is to replace gaskets and o-rings and eliminate the usual cause of cam cover oil leakage which is blocked breathers.
