Are we the engine ??? 'The-valve-cover' implies 1 cover, like a 4cylinder. 'Heads' imply 2 heads, like a V6 engine.

Which engine is it ? How many bolts have you removed ?

Old engines often have 'stuck' covers, from the goopy-soaked gasket holding it to the head. Do not force it off. Some gloves and a hot-air hair-dryer will soften the goop and allow removal. While it is hot, scrape the old gasket away.
