Small hole in head at bottom of valve cover bolt!

If the head is off you might want to debut the area so no more tiny fragments of metal can fall off and migrate into the engine.

I know you already put some in weld on the hole, but from my thinking I would just put sealer on the VC bolt when you reinstall, that way no way for anything else to make it's way into the engine. Did you test fit a VC bolt while the JB was playable? You may have just made the hole shallower than OEM.

Thanks Dana. Some of these guys scared me so I removed all of the JB Weld before it cured. It's back to the way it was. And yes, I checked the valve cover bolt and it went just about all the way down (enough that the valve cover and gasket would more than make up the difference).
