yes it is, unbolt the cover, and the gasket should be right under it. Take it out, apply some of that honda bond around the cover, put the gasket on, close everything.

yes it's easy but make sure the surface is clean before you put a new gasket in or else it defeats the purpose of changing it.

it's a little more work but you may wanna consider changing the gromets around the spark plug holes in your valve cover while your at it
