WOW its been 40000 years since I've been on here...
I noticed my car making horrible smells after driving (even after short trips). I recognised the problem as a leaky rocker cover seal cos I had the same issues with my excel (yes, I had an excel). It started to get so bad I could actually see the smoke from the oil hitting the manifold from outside the car...
Never really done anything like this before, so I did my research and got all the stuff I needed and set aside a few hours... this is the result:

mmm, so gross. To my horror, I discovered that nearly all the bolts were barely finger tight O.o

And that took me ~3 hours, but I'd do it a million times faster next time!
