Putting on hose clamps is a bit more tedious but it's peace of mind for me....because dropping a tappet means a lot more work! They will fall into the pan and there's no easy way to get them back in with the engine in the frame.
Damn, I had no idea. That sucks!

Interesting what you have to do to get to the cover. Must be a real treat pulling that cam out.
