All I have ever used is the cork gasket. Make sure that your valve cover is not bent at the 4 screw holes, people tend to over tighten them trying to stop a leak and that just makes it worse. Guess that's why Volvo used screws, but they forgot to tell us hamfisted guys to ease up on the torque.

My RMS leaks a little, but the clutch is good and the oil pressure is 55psi, so I will live with a diaper under the car. Besides, keeps the rust off the under carriage!
