Good luck with sale!
New ones are still available and recommended as the magnesium chips/pits over time and won't allow the VC to seal properly. If you look inside the groove where the valve cover gasket sits, you can see the pitting and no matter what you do, the gasket won't seal right. We've done close to 30+ VC jobs on S65's and 1 out of 2 needed the covers replaced due to pitting.
So your saying that 15 out of the 30 you have done failed?
