I would manually scrap off the sludge on the valve cover but be careful not to crack it or break it. You can try using some carb cleaner or other solvent to help scrub the sludge off the cover.

I would try doing 1500 mile oil changes with a healthy dose of marvel mystery oil in the oil. It will slowly break up the sludge without plugging up the oil pickup screen. You'll want to use a decent synthetic oil also, it will help to slowly scrub that crap away.
