    don't reuse the gasket.

    However, the valve cover can be from an M50 as well, so that should open up the options.

    I've got an M50/S50 valve cover and, better yet, an "M Power" plastic cover to go with it

    Oh, and a good shroud also

    But what do you mean by "Lt euro corner lens"? Do you mean a clear turn signal?

    Hey, I goofed. Looks like I don't have an M50/S50 valve cover. Maybe try Erik (2.5-12)

    I have the shroud and M Power cover, though.

    I have 5 OBD1 vanos valve covers.

    you're certainly welcome to another if you like, James.

    that car has a brand new Elring VC gasket on it.

    Which still shouldn't be reused

    I don't remember which, I read in the Bentley or BMW manual that they can be reused if the have less than something like 15k on them.

    I guess if it was pretty new and still pliable I would consider reusing it. Depends how cheap you are

    I reused a nearly new one on my 24V e30, no leaks. you can usually tell by visual inspection.

    I connected with these guys on one of the bumpers but they kinda gave me the run around so I said screw it.. They said they have a boston one (which I didn't want)....so maybe it'll work for you (if it ain't trashed). They wanted $150 for it. Maybe they have other junk you're looking for.
