    Hey folks, the pass side gasket is leaking. (3.4 of course)
    Can the passenger side cover be removed with plenum on?

    driver side is dry...

    Yes. Have to remove the plenum to get to the driver's side.

    just remove the throttle body and the lines connecting to it, you don't have to remove the plenum.
