Something in the back of my mind says 7 or 8 lb/ft for the fastenings on the rocker cover gasket. Tightening them to 60lb/in is 5lb/ft so perhaps a smidge loose but if it settles, you have some leeway to tighten them a smidge.
Just had a look in my Haynes, nothing for the B23/230 for the torque figure on the rocker cover gaskets either but on the B2828/280, they quote a figure of 11lb/ft but that's a V6 with alloy rocker covers.
You're certainly in the ball park, even with a SWAG on it.
