Default has anyone ever ...

taken a video with valley cover off or a clear lexan valley cover to watch the oil returns?
No particular reason, just curious to see the river of oil and its paths and accumulation

Cool idea! Heat up a piece of Lexan and silicone it down.

Back in the 70's I purchased a set of see through valve covers and a clear distributor cap from JC. Whitney, it was pretty cool as a young driver to show off under the hood after dark (distributor cap spark). I had them on a Pontiac 400. Valve covers turned brittle and slight yellow after a couple summers. I kept them around for several decades and apparently tossed them at some point.

Would a Tempest four provide a better view?
