Oil in a VQ35DE spark-plug well is a different leak from the removable outer rocker-cover gasket. The cited OEM kit states that the plug-recess seals are not replaceable separately, so the normal OEM repair is the affected complete valve cover, usually with a new outer gasket. This row does not cover VQ35HR sealing parts.
OEM numbers
Complete VQ35DE valve covers: RH/passenger 13264-AM600 and LH/driver 13264-AM610. Separate outer rocker-cover gaskets: 13270-8J102 and 13270-8J112. The OEM spark-plug recess seals are built into the covers and are not cataloged as the normal separate repair path.Supersession
No complete factory valve-cover supersession chain is claimed. The cited VQ35DE catalog records 13264-AM600 RH and 13264-AM610 LH; outer gaskets are 13270-8J102 and 13270-8J112. Verify VIN/engine before purchase.
Fitment
Oil in a VQ35DE spark-plug well is a different leak from the removable outer rocker-cover gasket. The cited OEM kit states that the plug-recess seals are not replaceable separately, so the normal OEM repair is the affected complete valve cover, usually with a new outer gasket. This row does not cover VQ35HR sealing parts.
Aftermarket options
Complete OEM Nissan covers are the clear stock-style path. Aftermarket aluminum or plastic covers may advertise serviceable tube seals, but fit, casting, baffling, and included hardware must be evaluated product by product; do not present them as OEM-equivalent without evidence.
Before you buy
VQ35DE cover family only; VQ35HR is excluded. Outer cover gaskets do not repair leaking built-in plug-well seals. Verify side, engine, VIN, and kit contents before checkout. This aftermarket pair is for the VQ35DE applications stated on the listing, not VQ35HR/VQ37VHR. Finish availability is variant-specific and can change.
