1978 Honda CB400TII Hawk II · Engine Buying guide
Routine oil service, a valve-cover reseal and internal cam-chain work need different shopping lists. These choices give you useful starting points without treating every engine job as a complete overhaul.

For routine oil service, begin with the paper element and inspect the filter bolt, housing and drain-plug threads. A leak near the filter and one at the valve cover require different parts. Locate the source before committing to a larger gasket order.
Cam-chain noise or poor running is a reason to inspect the engine, not proof that a single component needs replacement. Follow the Honda manual for diagnosis and measurements. Build the parts list around what the inspection establishes and the work needed to reach it.
Start with the correct paper filter element, then inspect the filter housing, retaining bolt and drain-plug sealing area. Replace damaged hardware as needed; a broader engine gasket set is a separate repair purchase.
Yes. The separate Athena valve-cover gasket is offered for this engine. It is a focused choice when the repair only opens that joint, provided the cover and mating surface are serviceable.
That cannot be decided from noise alone. Inspect the chain, tensioner and associated drive parts using the Honda manual before ordering. The featured tensioner is one component in that system.
