OH I should have also added that the car keeps stalling since this started a couple weeks ago. It stalls out equally while driving or idling but starts right up as long as the battery is in good charge. Also the elbows and alternator weren't removed for at least 2 years and that is well before the problem developed. I'll take off the alternator tomorrow and look over the valve cover in more detail and hope that's it.
Far as the EGR, that's on the other side from the leak and it is still much intact. Thanks for the comments.
