The valve cover gasket is reusable, if you do have to replace that gasket it's cheap and easy but you often have to replace it every 15-20 years because the rubber drys out.
When you do have the valve cover and timing belt cover off you will see the marks on the cam sprocket/pulley and normally those marks line up with the top of the head, on the VX is NOT the case, there are instead two small arrows cast in to the head that most people don't notice.
