Question EJ22 Valve Cover Gaskets Only Last 15 years?

Am i gonna have to replace these EVERY 15 years!

How much trouble can I get into replacing the valve cover gaskets on my 1991 2.2L 2WD Legacy?

Looks like i need a 10mm socket, and 2 inch extension and some new gaskets/silicone sealant and can all be done from above he engine. (My lift is at the dry cleaners this week.)

Would appreciate any hints or tips before I start scraping my knuckles.

It is not too hard and I think you have to replace them every 60,000 miles, IIRC.
