We all aren’t a high roller and want to spin the coin on a new oil cap, well, here ya’ go.
Your seal has turned into a crunchy, solid mass of rubber harder than a Jolly Rancher. That’s why your valve cover is a damp oil mess around it.
Use a screwdriver / chisel to get the old one out. Be gentle or else you’ll F-up your plastic oil cap. Oh, and the rounded shoulder fits INSIDE the oil cap.
