Well the valve covers have honest-to-goodness gaskets, not FIPG (other than in corners).
I'm sure FIPG degrades as well; my point was that I doubt that torquing the bolts would help with a leak in an FIPG seal, but it's worth a shot.
My first line of attack is to degrease and add the dye, then watch for leaks. Fun!
