I luckily inherited some records with the car. In '07 and about 30K miles ago there is a work order that describes:
"replace valve cover gasket and breather grommet. also replace upper timing chain guide rail"
I'm thinking this is the same thing as the pad in the valve cover, yes? And if that's the case, 8 years and 30K miles don't seem that long I would think? Does that change the diagnosis to you Cmyles or anyone else?
at the end of the work order in the recommendations part, it also says (in '07) that "timing chain noisy. may need tensioner or chain". this, presumably after they changed the upper guide rail
