I want to remove the manifold and valve covers. I just want to take a peek what is going inside. Do I need a new gaskets for the manifold and valve cover when screwing back the cover? Will I do any harm removing these covers just to look inside?

Why would you do that? You will need to replace the manifold and valve cover gaskets at the very least.

Posting until it is moved.

Removing the Manifold cover without replacing the gaskets is saving $10 for a $1000 possible repair later.

I want to take a peek inside what cause the engine ticking noise. I recorded the noise while the engine was running from 1000 to 3000 RPM and heard tick...tick..tick..tick.
How can I attach an audio file here for someone with more experience than me to hear it and tell me where is the ticking come from? Thanks!
