In the VAZ-21126 engine, the joint between the cover and the cylinder head is sealed with a sealant applied to the mating surfaces of the parts.
An external sign of wear on the valve stem seals is the short-term appearance of blue smoke from the exhaust pipe after starting the engine and when braking the engine after a long drive under load
If you find traces of oil leakage through the camshaft seals, first check to see if the crankcase ventilation system is clogged and if its hoses are pinched, and correct the problem if necessary
