http://cgi.ebay.co.uk:80/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250069322298&sspagename=ADME:L:RTQ:UK:1
Seller said its the original bolt on cover just air brushed. Just not sure if cover is same on 1,4sri and Corsasport.

Totally different engines, 8v has no rocker cover

It won't fit an 8v. You don't get covers like that for 8v engines as there isn't a lot to hide. Anything like that would have to be done as a custom job.

Or you could get the metal rocker cover airbrushed, but they are quite small...

tidy it up yourself
get a drill with a wire brush attachment and clean up the rocker yourself
once its down to silver shiney metal, paint it with brake drum laquer or Hammerite
or any other heat resistant paint

I think you lot are getting yourselves confused a bit...
The item for sale on eBay is an ENGINE COVER.
All engines have ROCKER COVERS; if they didn't, oil would spray out of your engine from the cam(s)!
And xtremewheels - I think you mean ROCKER COVER not "headgasket"...
