Are you sure that only changing the spark plug donuts on the valve cover won't solve the problem. It does in about 90% of the cases. To remove the camshaft caps you need a 6-8 mm socket and 3/8 ratchet. With the engine cold, remove one cap at a time and replace the O ring. When you get all 4 replaced you will need to torque the bolts to 7 ft/lbs. Then adjust all the valves. Then replace the valve cover gasket and the spark plug donuts on the valve cover.

i just rebuilt the head on my 92 accord and my rockers all come off as an assembly. if this is the case with yours its probably easier to pull off the whole assembly and hold it while someone else puts in the new o-rings cause if you let it sit for a while off the motor the spring tension between the rockers will push the whole assembly apart then the dowels wont line up when you go to put it back in
