My son's 1987 240 DL with the B230F engine just lost the rear cam plug. I checked the flame trap, and yep, it was plugged solid. I am assuming we will need to remove the valve cover to replace the plug, but when I logged onto The Parts Bin for the plug and valve cover gasket, I found I had to chose among three valve cover gaskets, listed as the following: Reinz, green; Molina, gray; and Elwis, gray. Somewhat confused, I looked at the engine, which is orangish red with a black valve cover. Can anyone direct me to the correct gasket, or are these things actually interchangeable? Thanks to all in advance.
