Default SC 400 Valve cover gasket?

Is the valve cover gasket worth replacing. I was quoted $315 for both by Philmark Motorcars for anyone familiar with them in the DC/MD area.

Well if it's leaking then you NEED to replace it. But for $315? You can do it yourself, it's a fairly easy job. I did mine when I first got my SC, and it was the first time I did it by myself.
