It's been a few years since I have really worked on an SC motor, so I'd like a 2nd opinion on this. I was getting ready to change the valve cover gaskets and do some other general maintenance items on my XR7, when I found this on the back side of the covers:

That seems like an awful lot of moisture to me. The car seemed to run good, but I only drove it around the house and let it idle since I bought the car as it needs the brake master cylinder replaced, so I never actually took it down the road. The car had sat for a year or so before I bought it. I'm thinking I need to just continue downward and pull the heads and change the head gaskets. What do you guys think?
