If you find them loose in their bores, you might find that by recentering them and then tightening them you're problem goes away. Sometimes they get loose and slide over a bit, the slot that separates the pivot shaft from the expansion ends of the shaft slides over enought to cause a leak. Obviously this is more work than a valve adjustment so all the same crap has to come off, but just one isn't too bad, it depends on which one...If it turns out that the bore is scratched or worn by the rocker shaft then you can get the rsr seals that fit in the slot and compress against the inside of the bore when tightened...a little old school but will work in a pinch...
