The valve cover gasket and 4 sprark plug well gaskets can be purchased at a dealership for less than $20 total, if I remember correctly. Make sure not to over torque. The spec is less than 10 lb-ft.

Whats wrong with the headlights? Its common for the lenses to turn "yellowish" over time. A little metal polish followed by plastic polish has been known to make the make the lenses more transparent.
