unclip breather hoses then undo the rocker cover torx bolts. Make sure you replace the gasket and DO NOT overtighten the bolts when putting it back together

Im wanting to clean the rocker cover up and just want to know anything vital so i dont brake anything or damage things.

What needs to be removed to get the rocker cover off?
