86 302 valve cover gaskets?

1986 F150, 302 all stock with fuel injection.
Do I need to remove intake manifold to replace passenger
side valve cover gasket? Drivers side looks like I could get
valve cover out but passenger side looks like the plenum(?)
is close to top of valve cover.
Hoping someone has a trick for snaking the valve cover out
of there
Thanks!

Yep the upper intakes gotta come off. Make sure you replace the gasket on the intake. Its really not that hard to get it off.

8 or so bolts. undo a few vacuum lines and linkage and its off.. Use a NEW gasket torque to the correct specifications.
