I found some good info using the search function using valve spring removal and valve cover removal.
It would be nice if there was some info on how to orient the crankshaft so the passenger side rear valve is compressed , rocker arm tipped down to make the passenger side valve cover easier to remove.
I just kept rotating the crank until I got it off. Now I wish I would have figured out the orientation to make the next time easier.

Maybe someone knows of the top of their head?

When all the body mounts were still good 20 years ago I remember them popping off quite easy. Lol

since the valves open once every 2 crank rotations there's no simple way to mark this. You could go by the cam sensor window, but it could be different for each car depending on how each person installed theirs. Sadly the best way is for a helper to rotate engine with wrench and watch the pushrod. If by yourself you could put some white paint on the pushrod so you can see if it moved. They will open soon after the compression stroke so you check that too.

any auto parts store has the type with the hand wheel on top. I've used the ones with a modified rocker and a lever and they're worst to use than the universal tool.

I rented from O'reillys.

I like this one and it works on many other vehicles. I took the wheel off and welded a nut on the end . Now I just use a 9/16 ratchet wrench and have all kinds of room on the back cylinders.
