I have bought a Alpina look Rocker Cover on Ebay i.e. its black with silver.
Before I change them over do I need a gasket?

I would - they don't cost much, saves you time too if the old one weeps.

Which make of gasket do you recommend and where from i.e GSF, Euro Carp parts, Motormech?
Do I need any type of sealant as well? Sorry to be so unclued up.

GSF or ECP will do you a perfectly good rocker gasket, no sealant required.
