Update on H&B bars:
I had to loosen them right off at all mounting points to remove the valve cover & more importantly, to be able to re-fit the valve cover square to the head as failure to do so leads to oil leaks around the spark plug tunnel. Complete PITA IMO. The plastic pulley cover was also hard to remove.
In addition, the grommet on the flywheel inspection hole that allows you to see the TDC mark was hard to remove (& harder to re-fit), so I didn't bother, found TDC by feel & a long thin screwdriver.
