Re: 1g 6 bolt 4g63 tsi build

Picked up this "mint condition, no cracks, or stripped screw holes" valve cover last night from a guy on craigslist. It has fresh wrinkle black paint on it. I got home and inspected it further and found what I thought was a hairline crack next to the #2 spark plug hole bolt but wasn't sure if it was an actual crack. Installed it very carefully making sure not to over torque any bolts or make the suspected crack worse. Sure enough it leaks at that spot.

The douche bag painted right over the crack and sold it as "mint condition".
His phone number is (612) 296-2504 and lives near the Cub foods on Hwy 65 in Blaine. Anybody know him? Guy is being a total prick when I told him about the crack.

and yeah, yeah I know. Thats what I get for buying used parts from craigslist.
