can the rear cam cam cover or seal be replaced without removing the camshafts? my valve covers are leaking bad, and its leaking a lot of oil from the rear cam plugs too. also, where would i be able to purchase these seals?

 

nevermind, looks like two small bolts and the cover pops off and there's a seal behind that

 

One way to purchase them individually, outside of a gasket kit of some sort, would be from a dealership or an online OEM Toyota parts supplier.

My first choice in online OEM Toyota parts suppliers is 1stToyotaParts.com

The part number for those is 11188-65010.

I just looked on RockAuto.com and they have them also. They won't be OEM, but should work just as well.

 

You've already answered your own questions, but yes it can be replaced without pulling the camshaft. On mine, and I think as per the FSM, I used some FIPG around the seal. So if the PO or factory put some on it, you might have to some coercing.
