Here's a tip that is especially good for the clutch-side cover. Put a more permanent gasket sealer on the side of the gasket toward the crankcase, and use an RTV on the side toward the cover. When it is time to change the clutch, the RTV will allow the cover to pop off cleanly and the gasket will not be destroyed. The gasket has basically been glued to the crankcase. To reseal, just rub and peel off the RTV and apply some fresh.
I have used this technique for 35 years, it is great for any cover you may want to remove cleanly later.
