Hi Im new to mx5 and I was just wondering I have to do service anyway and my rocker cover leaks oil a bit and not sure if I need gasket or if its just sealed with silicon
Can anyone help please?

Buy genuine Mazda gasket only as aftermarket ones are not great.Genuine is about 26e and aftermarket about 20e anyway .Only use minimun amount of sealant and the six corners where gasket raises over cams and cas sensor position.Nowhere else as loose sealer can block sump pickup as I have had two mx5,s during the year with this exact problem and when I removed cam covers ...loose silicone in oil etc.Engines seized.!!
