Default 1994 DX valve cover boltz

Hey fellas, I changed my sparkplugs last week and everything was running great until I noticed oil leaking out of the valve cover so I like a dumbass decided to tighten the valve cover bolts a little more. To make a long story short I broke two right at the top. My question is how hard is it to replace these bolts?? Also, what dou you use to make sure the gasket seals correctly????

there is some blue silicone stuff to make the seal stay in better and as for the valve cover bolts its not hard to remove them all you need is an open end wrench or a deep socket (forgot size) 8 or 10 would be my best guess. just make sure you get the right one from honda cause they gave me the wrong one when it happened to me.

You probably need a new valve cover gasket.
