hi all in my1988 MM i have a G63b.. recently went to replace valve cover gasket.at the back of head there is a half moon rubber grommet. did not come with valve cover gasket replacement.. where can i get one of these. it is hard as a rock.. also where can i get the rubber grommet washers for the top of valve cover where the nuts are... are those dealer items?? thanks for reading and your time.

A decent replacement valve cover seal set should've contained all the seals and not just the valve cover gasket. Looks like this - http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Rock-Valve-Cover-Gasket-Set-MD041512KIT/391274299633?_trksid=p2047675.c100010.m2109&_trkparms=aid%3D333008%26algo%3DRIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%2 6asc%3D33871%26meid%3D504a891da79849fea902d7bc1cc3 d339%26pid%3D100010%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D5%26sd%3D1916 43801639

That's cool. In hindsight they should've asked you and not all kits have the grommets and rear seal in them. But now you know! :thumbup:
