Hi, long time lurker first time poster
MOT flagged up a small leak on Rocker cover gasket.
Just wondered if anyone could point me in the right direction to a guide or video showing what needs to be stripped down to remove the rocker cover, have tried searching but can't find specific guide for TSI engine
Thanks in advance for any help

Here's a picture of engine incase it jogs anyone's memory of doing the gasket on one. Thanks

Have you discovered exactly where the leak is yet?

It might just be the PCV valve housing that has cracked or broken, I think that that black plastic valve with a pipe attached is located underneath that big plastic charge pipe - can you see any traces of oil down in that area?

Thanks for replying, much appreciated.
The leak is coming from the bottom left of rocker cover ( just under filler cap in picture)
I have a new gasket ready to fit but with so much attached to head I'm unsure how much needs to be removed to access it
