Yup.  Usually I like to go Nissan OEM for all my parts, but you will
find the complete gasket set for the valve cover costs over $90,
which is friggin' insane for some rubber parts.

Fel-Pro Gaskets has a complete kit, which Advance Auto Parts charged
me $36 for, and it works great.  It includes the main gasket, all 5
rings, and the 17 or so rubber & metal washers that go under the crown nuts.

Get the Permatex gray sealer and check the FSM for the application points.
