2000 3.0 Valve Cover Gaskets

So I have been searching through the threads on here researching the 3.0 valve cover gaskets and I know my way around an engine pretty well. Just have a couple questions.. is that rear valve cover gasket as much of a hassle as it looks like? aside from upgrading the valve covers themselves, any other notorious 5th gen issues I should look for while in there?

They don't apply to the 3.0 Only the 5.5 Gen 3.5 Motor. So you do not have to worry about it since 3.0 Is very solid motor andpracticallyly bulletproof relaibilty
