Exhaust side? Cam plug is on the rear of the head. Press in like a seal, nothing more.

Thanks for the replys
I have a new cam plug, valve cover gasket, oil cap
(updated) and suction pump.

Hopefully that should fix my leak.

Oil Leak GONE!!! Woo Hoo all dry on the driver's side Valve cover and cam plug.
Leak was gone as soon as I replaced the oil cap. I went ahead and replaced the PCV&hose assembly, suction pump and passenger side valve cover gasket.

I gotta tell ya there is a BIG differenct in quality between the OEM gaskets and the Cheap-O brand. BIG DIFFERENCE.
