Usually but you'll need at very least new bolts (streatch bolts)and compression seals (copper washers) for injectors, but you can also get clamp upgrades, and rocker cover injector seals x4 , quite often its the injectors that come slightly loose and cause bit of back pressure (compression blowing by injector seal) which causes leaks, if its bit oily around injectors best replace all seals and gasket and make sure where compression seal/copper washer sits on head is super clean and flat (may need re-cut)before fitting new bits, and number injectors so they go in the same place they came oot
