Hope you are pulling the cover to check the valve clearances. If not, you may want to consider it.

Any of the OEM suppliers or from Z1enterprizes would be an acceptable source.

No that is not the reason. Just bought the bike month ago bike runs great. But started leaking at half moon gaskets toke end covers of repositioned stoped leaking there. But started leaking elseware.

Here is another option for the two valve motor. They don't work very well on the four valve. If you grease the OEM gasket you should be able to use it for a few valve checks. The 83 should have the 19 bolt hole one but you might want to count them if you order one.

I also agree with Ed and even though it runs great any "new to me" bike will get a valve check just to be sure they are within spec.

Consider the leak a subtle warning- please read this link .

Adjust the valves now. If you wait for running problems to direct you burned valves are likely to result.
