Valve cover question
Okay, so this is probably a stupid question, but I really don't know anything about cars. I've been looking to replace the valve covers on my 92 camaro, and i found some i like. The problem is that in the picture, where I would put the oil cap is on the opposite side compared to how it is on my engine.
I was looking in my Haynes repair manual the part about replacing the valve covers, and everything the engine looks exactly like mine (V8) except that oil cap is on the opposite side.
My question is this, can that cap be switched around? I wouldn't want to by the new valve covers and have the writing and logo stuff upside down because that's the only way it would go on.

Doesn't matter what side the oil fill is on.
Just make sure you get the proper grommets to re-install your PCV and breathers.
