Default Torque the valve cover? Leaking...

For some reason my valve cover doesn't seem to sit right. It did before we pulled it to check the gasket which looks okay. When I put it back on, it's not flush on the one end. Do you have the tighten this down in a paticular order?

no you just need to make sure the gasket isnt falling and folding up causing it not to sit flush if you need to put a dab of silicone on all 4 corners of the gasket and put it in the valve cover then set it down and make sure theres no hoses, throttle cables, etc. in the way of the valve cover.
