I am planning on getting this car (2005 Lexus) and I had a PPI done and all that is wrong is just a valve cover leak. I watched a tutorial online how to do it and it’s not that hard it just takes a while to get to the rear engine valve. I was wondering when it comes to torquing the nuts and bolts back are they all the same? I know for the engine valves are in 71 in-lbs. When it goes to putting back everything to where it was, would it be the same?

@inner stratus Greetings fellow MZ owner! (I have a '00 Avalon). According to ShopKeyPro, the "Cylinder Head Cover" bolts are torqued to 71 in-lbs.
Hope this helps! ✌️
