The bails should last quite some time. My guess is that you need a new
valve cover (and, of course, a new gasket). Just make sure that the
gasket is seated properly first before buying a new cover.
Also be sure to clean all that oil off the exchanger. Foamy engine
cleaner and/or carb cleaner both work pretty well.

shouldnt
leak, the engine only has like 65 miles on it. any help guys? I need to fix
it
because stinky oil spills on the heater box and makes smoke that comes into
the
