2003 TB has 69,000 miles, valve Cover gaskets leaked oil, had to replace. No oil leaks now.

Cam Position sensor grommets on the valve covers get old and dry and will leak a little oil.

I had a crack in the valve cover at the Position sensor hole that was about1" long, I fix it with super glue.

I would get a second opinion at an owner-operator repair shop, stay away from dealers, and corporation run shops.
