Wrong valve cover for the driver's side. Could have been swapped side to side.

Coolant leak evidenced in the intake manifold valley is troubling. You'd think they'd prep a car better for the catalog photo. Great job of polishing the paint though....the engine bay and interior, not so much.

A few hours on that and a few cuts and bruises would transform it.
