I am in the process of adjusting my valves. I have to replace the cork gasket. I have an aluminum valve cover that is flat on the bottom edge. What is recommended for the high temperature silicone to seal the cork to the cover.
 
A bit more in cost, but this stuff is excellent, IMHO. Cure time is 24 hours, so a bit of patience is required.

High temp silicone sealant to glue the gasket to the valve cover . Hold it all in place with masking tape while it sets up 24hrs . No sealant on the gasket to head face needed .
