I need a set of stock valve covers to hack open so I can adjust a noisy rocker arm while the motor is running without making a huge mess.

Do they bolt up?

If so, how much are a used set worth?

they'll clear, but you might be better off getting a set of early stamped steel ones.. the cast alum would be a pain to cut through..
