    I just used 3m green masking tape. Just carefully tape around the hole. Doesnt matter if it isnt perfect cause the cap covers it.

    Re: Valve Covers.

    usually you take the cover off to paint it so u just take the oil cap off paint over it. doesnt matter if you paint down there it wont stop it from screwing back in
