Camshaft Chain Cover Gasket - Right
Maintain the integrity of your classic Porsche engine with
this OE Match Right Camshaft Chain Cover Gasket. Manufactured to original
equipment specifications, this high-quality replacement gasket creates a
dependable oil-tight seal between the right-hand camshaft chain housing and
chain cover, helping to prevent oil leaks while protecting the engine's vital timing
components.

Diagram ref no 9
The camshaft chain housing contains the timing chains that synchronise crankshaft and camshaft rotation. A correctly sealing chain cover gasket is essential for retaining engine oil within the chain housing, ensuring continuous lubrication of the timing chains, sprockets and tensioners while preventing oil contamination of the engine exterior.
Whether you're carrying out an engine rebuild, repairing an oil leak or restoring an early short-wheelbase Porsche 911, this OE Match gasket provides factory-quality fitment and reliable sealing performance.
What Does the Camshaft Chain Cover Gasket Do?
The chain cover gasket seals the mating surfaces between the camshaft chain housing and the outer chain cover.
Its primary functions include:
- Preventing engine oil leaks.
- Maintaining correct oil levels within the chain housing.
- Protecting timing chains and sprockets with continuous lubrication.
- Preventing dirt and moisture entering the timing case.
- Supporting long-term engine reliability.
- Maintaining a clean engine bay.
A properly sealing gasket is essential for preserving the lubrication and protection of the Porsche flat-six timing system.
Why Does the Chain Cover Gasket Fail?
Over many years of service, engine gaskets naturally deteriorate due to constant exposure to oil, heat and engine vibration.
Common causes of failure include:
- Age-related hardening.
- Compression set.
- Heat cycling.
- Oil saturation.
- Damage during previous repairs.
- Incorrect installation or overtightening.
- Engine rebuilds requiring gasket replacement.
Replacing the gasket whenever the chain cover is removed is considered best practice.
Symptoms of a Failing Chain Cover Gasket
Common signs include:
- Oil leaks around the right-hand chain housing.
- Oil residue on the engine casing.
- Oil dripping beneath the vehicle.
- Burning oil smell from oil contacting hot exhaust components.
- Dirt collecting around oil seepage.
- Visible gasket deterioration during servicing.
Ignoring oil leaks can lead to reduced oil levels and contamination of surrounding engine components.
When Should the Camshaft Chain Cover Gasket Be Replaced?
Replacement is recommended when:
- The chain housing cover is removed.
- Engine oil leaks are present.
- Performing a timing chain inspection.
- Carrying out a complete engine rebuild.
- Restoring a classic Porsche engine.
- Replacing timing chains, sprockets or tensioners.
Installing a new gasket during reassembly helps ensure a long-lasting, leak-free repair

What the
Products Do
- Cam Cover Gaskets: Seal the camshaft/valve covers to the cylinder head, preventing engine oil leaks and keeping contaminants out.
- Bolts: Maintain correct torque and clamping pressure on the covers, ensuring the gaskets stay sealed under heat and vibration.
Together, they protect your engine from oil leaks, maintain lubrication, and preserve long-term engine health.
Symptoms of
Failure
- Visible oil leaks around the cam/valve cover area
- Burning oil smell from oil dripping onto exhaust components
- Oil spots under the car after parking
- Low oil levels or frequent top-ups
- Rough running or misfires caused by oil leaking into spark plug wells
Common
Reasons for Failure
- Age & Heat: Gaskets harden and lose flexibility after years of heat cycling.
- Oil Exposure: Continuous contact with hot oil degrades gasket material.
- Bolt Stretch or Loosening: Original bolts lose clamping force over time, allowing leaks.
- Improper Previous Repair: Reusing old bolts or over-tightening can warp covers and damage seals.
Why Replace
as a Kit?
- Ensures complete resealing of both cam covers in one service.
- New bolts guarantee proper torque and sealing pressure.
- Prevents oil leaks that can cause engine bay mess, smoke, or fire hazards.
- Protects against premature engine wear from low oil levels.
- Saves on labour by replacing all related components at once.
Ideal For: Routine
maintenance, leak repair, or as a preventive upgrade during top-end engine
service.

Kit Contents
1 x OE Match engine cam cover gasket, cyl. 1-3 (OE ref number 9A110573103)
1 x OE Match engine cam cover gasket, cyl. 4-6 (OE ref number 9A110573203)
40 x OE Genuine Porsche cam cover bolts, 9A110731301
The cam cover gaskets seal the joint between the cam covers and the cylinder heads, helping prevent engine oil leaks and keeping contaminants out of the valve train area. The replacement bolts provide the correct clamping force required to hold the cam covers securely in place and maintain an even seal under heat, vibration, and normal engine movement.
Functions
• Reseals both engine cam covers
• Helps prevent oil leaks from the cam cover / valve cover area
• Supports correct sealing between the cam cover and cylinder head
• Helps keep oil inside the engine and contaminants out
• Includes fresh OE Genuine Porsche bolts for secure installation
• Helps maintain correct clamping pressure on the gaskets
• OE Match gasket solution with genuine Porsche fixing hardware
Cam cover gaskets are exposed to constant heat cycling, engine oil, vibration, and age-related wear. Over time, the gaskets can harden, flatten, crack, or lose sealing ability, which may lead to oil leaks around the cam cover area. Old bolts can also lose clamping performance or become unsuitable for reuse after removal. Replacing both gaskets and bolts together helps restore a reliable seal and reduces the risk of repeat labour.
When to Replace:
• Oil leaks are visible around the cam cover / valve cover area
• There is a burning oil smell from oil contacting hot exhaust components
• Oil drips or residue are found under the engine
• The cam covers have been removed during engine service
• The original gaskets have hardened, flattened, or failed
• The original bolts are corroded, stretched, damaged, or previously removed
• The engine is undergoing top-end service, leak repair, or preventative maintenance.
Where it fits on the car
This kit fits on the engine cam cover / valve cover areas. One gasket is used for each side of the engine, with the included bolts securing the cam covers to the cylinder heads according to the factory tightening sequence and torque specification.
