Many thanks. In another video, a Honda mechanic also replaced all 4 rubber ignition coil Gaskets (bushings?). Is that absolutely necessary as he indicated it was? It was a silent video but he responded to a poster's question.
Helps alot. Are Honda Accord 2008 4 cylinders vtek?
Thanks for the video man, don’t you torque the bolts or use a gasket sealant?

Great video. Good instructions. A steady camera (mount) makes a huge difference. Some of the kits (Fel Pro) come with new seals around the spark plug holes and new rubber seals/washers for the valve cover mount. Good to mention that if the users sees any oil around the coil pack, those gaskets should be replaced as well.
I accidentally dropped a small rtv inside the engine. Maybe an inch long, but sort of skinny. Would I be okay??

did it fall in and down through the oil gallery that returns to the oil pan? While my reply is late, you could pour some oil down where the little piece of dried RTV fell down and then open up the oil pan to let it drain out that way. The oil pickups in most motors do have a screen so it likely won't get past that anyways and will eventually just come out on the your next few oil changes.
Can you send a list of bolts that you took off an put on if you have a diagram for where they go

Hi Miguel, Sorry I don't have the car handy to do this. You'll unfortunately need to watch the video see what I took out (and sadly you might not see every screw I've taken out).
I am sorry but what about cleaning the valve cover inside and also changing spark plug tube seals!
where did you get your genuine part?
