You just need to unbolt it carefully clean all the oil and glue. Then change the old glue with the a new one (the one that holds the oil with in the engine). Also chechk your water pipes you are loosing some coolant green color if you can see
Oh also be careful do not tighten the bolts to much the gasket will crack like a cookie
Also can you give us more info about the exhaust manifold that you have changed ???

If I could I would tell you, but it was done at a local mechanic as the original manifold was cracked (so the extractors were put on). Its a shocking job and really should take it back to were it was done.
just rocker cover gasket. as mentioned doesnt need to go to tight.
maybe give it a good pressure wash (cover distributer with plastic bag) drive a lil longer as it make sure,
yer new hose clamps on that hose (the spring type ones are crapola)
replace the hose if u wish whilst u at it.
That's a fairly common place for them to leak ( Murcods got No.1 - the dissy "O" ring"...
The rocker cover seal gets hard over time and no longer does its stuff.
As also stated be very careful when replacing / tightening its easy to have the seal slip out and then crack the rocker cover when tightening.
If your tight you could remove / clean and silastic it all back together but that makes the next valve adjustment just that much harder some time in the future so......
( usual disclaimers )
It seemed like a much better idea when I started it than it does now.
