Broke valve cover stud
Ok, when I was putting my valve cover back on I ended up snapping the stud on the bottom left corner of the valve cover while turning the bolt. What's the part number on the stud and how hard is it to fix???

I forgot the stock number but try your local honda dealer. mind didn't stock this item since it's not a regularly stocked item. for getting the broken part out, just use a screw extractor kit and make sure you cover the ENTIRE area surrounding the hole. you wouldn't want any drill shavings getting into the oil galley or valvetrain. it only took me 5 minutes max to get the broken piece out. also I have a tap and die set that I use on the thread afterward to make sure I didn't stripped the threads. hope that helps.
