I would try to get them to redo the valve cover for you.... If not, maybe use some mineral spirits to clean out the inside, THOUROUGHLY clean it, then reinstall... BUT THAT IS JUST MY IDEA! DO NOT FOLLOW IT UNTIL EXPERTS CAN CONFIRM THIS!!!!! I AM NOT TELLING TO DO THIS!!!!

I seem to recall reading somewhere that the inside of my 722.6 transmission pan is painted black to facilitate the identification of metal particles in the ATF.It appeared to be painted black when I removed it during the ATF change and I
know it came that way from the factory.
The ATF pan on my 911 is
cadmium plated ...from the factory. Found it out after I removed all the Cosmoline.
I'll have to agree with the previous posters though that unless I was certain sure of the surface preparation and coating specifications, I wouldn't want anyone putting anything but lubricants on the inside/engine-facing sides of my engine's components.
