I recently just had some work done on my car. There was a note on my receipt saying "Valve Cover has a hairline crack and must be replaced."

What does this exactly mean?? Do i need a whole new cover? or Does the Gasket Need replacing?

If i need to get the "Valve cover" replaced around how much would it be to get a new one and is it easy to do?

Also, i need to replace the gasket. Is that easy to do? Just buy the gasket? Do i need a sealent ?

there would be a crack if the bolts are too tight. I replaced on with another from a junked car and replaced all the gaskets at the same time.
