I am just about to replace rocker cover gasket on 2.2 N/A.

Anyone know what torque setting needed when refitting cover?

Think it’s 10nm, but can check the Haynes manual for you.
I don’t normally torque them, just do them up with a small ratchet and “nip” them

Just 'hand tight' is about right. Just as important to ensure you bolt it down in the correct sequence, alternating across opposing bolts (i.e. lightly tighten all, then follow the sequence)
