Default Valve cover gasket replaced 2x still leaking

Greetings, Honda Civic 2007 Dx owner.

I had the valve cover gasket replaced. Was still leaking. Had the shop re-do it. No charge, 18 MO’s later. They claimed faulty gasket. 2 months out, still a small daily leak, right above the camshaft plug, at the VC gasket. Wondering if the tech cracked my valve cover? Who knew they were plastic? Calling shop now. Any suggestions. I think I am going to suggest the cover was cracked, or a bolt was over torqued, cracking the cover.

I think the only other viable alternative, is my damn head is warped…… thoughts?
thanks!

Leaking above camshaft plug, to the bolt.
