Removing the Valve Cover on a Renault Clio

The clio has been using oil for the past year and i think it was leaking it from the rocker cover, after looking under the car i seen oil down the back side of the engine. The rocker or Valve cover had to be replaced on this car, the old one had went quite brittle. The inlet manifold had to come off first, and i didn't really show that process in the full detail in this video as its available here:    • Renault Clio 1.2 16v D4F Throttle Body Rem...   Once the inlet manifold is off, the valve cover is held in with 14 screws, i also removed the engine mount so that it could slide up over the spark plug tubes. As for the reinstallation, the haynes manual specified a sequence to reinstalling the bolts, i followed that, but just tightened them by feel as opposed to using a torque wrench to tighten them to 12Nm, the reason for this was i didn't have a torque wrench that went lower than 40Nm Also when you have the valve cover opened its a good opportunity to check the valve clearances, this car isn't making any noises and i don't have a feeler gauge so they were left alone.
